what could it be when a sexuall active woman who does not use protection during sex has a smelly discharge, itchiness and slight pain?
could it be that i wash too much?
Or could it be something serious like an STD/STI?

i know this really isnt the issue, but it concerned me. why arent you using protection? you are putting yourself at very high risk for pregnancy, and STIs, as well as HIV/AIDS. as you already perhaps think you have an STI, you know how worrying and distressing the not knowing can be. dont put yourself thorugh that, its not worth it, as contaception is so easy to obtain and use. there really is no excuse.
sorry if this comes across as a lecture or anything, im not meaning it to be, im just worried for you.
This should help you

but please get it checked out ..sooner rather than later.
Its ok ive been working on the whole introduction of protection thing for a while now i'll get there in the end
yeh, but while youre 'getting there' you could fall pregnant or catch an STD. does your bf refuse to wear a condom or something? you really need to start looking after yourself. contraception is not something that is worked into a sexual relationship, it should be there from the beginning
I agree with that it should be there from the beginning but its hard to introduce it now and he hasnt refused to wear a condom-it just hasnt ever been mentioned and im scared to bring it up because of reasons i can't disguss on here.

2. Stop having unprotected sex, get clued up about contraception here and talk to your boyfriend. If you can have sex with each other, and be that intimate then you should be able to discuss the small but important matter of preventing babies and stis.
Take care of you
