Lately my discharge has been clumpy and smells stronger

Okay so discharge can totally change texture and smell, it's pretty normal for it to be a bit clumpy sometimes and even have a faint smell. Your body is always changing, and discharge changes with it, like during your cycle or when you're about to get your period.

But if it's really clumpy, like cottage cheese, or if the smell is super strong and fishy, or if you're also itchy or feeling burning down there, that's usually a sign that something else is going on. It could be a yeast infection or something similar, and those are super common.

If you're noticing those extra things, definitely tell a grown-up you trust, like a parent or school nurse. They can help you figure out if you need to see a doctor to get it checked out, because sometimes you need a special cream or medicine to make it feel better.
