2 days ago I had dry discharge but yesterday it just found a clump of it the was kinda sticky

Okay so totally normal. Discharge changes like all the time, and it's super common for it to be different textures. One day it can be dry, and then sticky and clumpy the next, because your body is doing different things.

Your cycle has a lot to do with it. Sometimes it's thicker and stickier, and sometimes it's more watery or clear. It’s your body's way of cleaning itself out and it’s also how it gets ready for ovulation, which is when an egg gets released. Super cool, right?

If it starts to itch or smell weird, then it's worth telling a grown-up just to check it out. But otherwise, different textures are just how discharge works.
