Brief Answer:
Twice daily for 1 week will be enough.

Detailed Answer:
Hi Ma'am

Thank you for asking HCM

I have gone through your query. Your problem can be most likely vaginal candidiasis (yeast infection). For this you can use candid V gel twice daily for 1 week. This much time is enough to cure it.
You can also use intimate wash to normalize vaginal bacterial flora and PH. If not improving after 1 week then a consultation with gynecologist and swab test should be done to rule out other infections or bacterial vaginosis.

Let me know if anything not clear.
I am happy to help you.
Thanks.
