Brief Answer:
Could be an infection

Detailed Answer:
Hello
Thanks for trusting us with your health concern .
This could be the beginning of a urinary tract infection.
Please drink lots of fluids and get a urine routine microscopy test done.
Another possibility is atrophic vaginitis or the beginning of a prolapse.
If the urine test is normal please request an exam by a gynecologist to rule out these two.
All the best
Please feel free to discuss further .
