Aunty Julie,
When I have sex, afterward it’s like the wet stuff from my vagina
gathers or dries into tiny crumbs and smells funny. I don’t know what is
the cause . My guy doesn’t say anything but it happens every time. It’s
so weird and embarrassing. I figure it’s not dirt but it looks so
strange.

Dear Tina
I think what you’re describing is pretty normal. Vaginal secretions
when they dry out can go a bit crumby, and may have a stronger smell
after sex from the semen. If your vagina and vulva feel healthy, that is
not sore or itchy, and the smell isn’t unpleasant, then it’s nothing to
worry about. Vaginal discharge can change for different reasons – time
of the month, use of different types of contraceptive, level of sexual
arousal, use of different types of lubricant during sex.
Some infections can cause a vaginal discharge and it’s important at
your age to get a check up from time to time. If you feel that the
secretions are irritating your skin, or smell fishy, it may be an
abnormal bacterial growth which can get treated. If you’re noticing the
secretions getting lumpy during sex, it may be because your vagina is
getting a bit dry and using a water based lubricant will help.
