Soso, what does it mean when you go to the bathroom and notice a white discharge, and a few days ago you saw a clear discharge, and on May 15th it was your first period, but the second one didn't come, and you've never had sex?

The clear discharge and then a white discharge are super normal, okay? This is just your body cleaning itself from the inside and showing that your hormones are starting to work, which is a sign of puberty. This is your body's way of preparing for menstruation and all the changes that come with it.

What is this discharge?

So, the clear discharge you saw first is a more watery discharge that can appear in different phases of your cycle. It's the most common and healthy. The "white discharge" you describe is probably a thicker, whitish discharge, like egg white, which is also normal and happens at another point in your cycle. It can change color and texture depending on the day, you know? Your vaginal cells and mucus mix together and form this fluid that comes out from time to time.

And the period that didn't come again?

It's super, hyper normal for your period to be all over the place at first! Like, doctors say that in the first year or two after your first period, it's very common for it not to come every month like clockwork. It might come one month, skip the next, or come twice in the same month. It's because your body is learning to manage hormones, and it takes time for everything to settle down. You don't need to worry about this. The fact that you had discharge and your first period shows that your body is developing normally.

What to do?

To feel more comfortable, you can use a panty liner if the discharge bothers you or to avoid soiling your underwear. And to roughly know when your next period might come (even if it's a bit unpredictable at first), the Sosô app helps you track everything and shows how your body works! Like, you log when you had discharge, when your period came, and it helps you see a pattern.
