what is the gooey white stuff in my vagina?

[juveneta]

i'm a bit uneducated when it comes to fluids. recently i had some issue with i think BV (yellowish discharge, bad smell) that i've been treating with boric acid. it's been getting better.

i was feeling a bit turned on today and because i've been on the pill, i've been having issues with getting wet. i plan to lose my virginity soon and i wanted to check up down there when i'm aroused. when i looked down there i saw that i had some gooey white liquid in my vagina, not really inside but around it. i never looked down there when i am turned on before and so i don't really know what it really means to be "wet". is natural lubrication supposed to be white-ish or is it all clear?

or is this discharge i should be concerned about? is this something to do with my BV?

i'd appreciate any help. thanks!

(i'm 18F, very inexperienced)
