Ok.. embarassing like a lot of things on this board. Hope I'm in the right place. I get really, really wet throughout the day. Not constantly but when it happens, it's a problem. I don't remember it always being like this for me. maybe just the last coulpe years or so...? I'm 24, if that matters. I don't want to have to use a liner every single day but I don't know what else to do. I am not on any birth control pills and I don't want to be, if I can avoid it. Does anyone else have this problem? Any ideas for how to cope? Does it mean that something is wrong?

Well, I'm not an expert, but wetness like that can be caused by eggwhite cervical

Hi there, welcome to the board.

The other poster gave you the same advice I would have given you. If the wetness is constantly bad, there could be a hormonal issue, and you might want to check it out with your doctor. If there's no hormonal issue, then it's probably what is normal for you.

Also, if you happen to be taking any evening primrose oil, or take Robitussin on a regular basis, these can cause your body to produce more cervical fluid.
