Hello,
You are having yellowish vaginal discharge.No smell is a good sign because foul smell may indicate indicate.However,some other factors need to considered.The consistency of the discharge is important.Along with that any complaints of itching,rashes etc is important.If there is no rashes/itching,and the discharge is watery thin,then its normal.In case the discharge is thick,curd like and there is itching etc then infection may be a cause.You need to remember that some amount of discharge during various phases of the cycle is normal.Maintain good hygiene.In case of continuous thick discharge you will need a course of antibiotics.
