There are multiple reasons. If the yellow discharge is accompanied by itching, odor and burning then you probably have an infection and need to be evaluated by a medical professional.
Many things can cause yellow discharge depending on your age. Not always an infection, but could be, so get it checked out if it is bothering you!
Sounds like you have a vaginitis called BV. See your gynecologist for an exam and treatment.
