Question : is this normal for my vagina to look like this on the inside it almost looks like something is pushing out I'm not quite sure. It does look like I have some sort of a yeast infection it is white and thin watery. I just had a yeast infection recently though as well and my period just finished about four days ago .

Brief Answer:
vagina appears normal,you should go for internal examination.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,

Welcome to HCM,

I can understand your concerns,

Vagina appears normal in picture.there is white vaginal discharge.

White,curdy in nature vaginal discharge along with itching indicates yeast infection which can further confirmed by vaginal swab testing.

Do you have any symptoms like itching?

Though in picture vagina appears normal,internal examination helps in ruling out any pathology.i advise that you should consult your gynecologist.

For yeast infection you should take clotrimazole vaginal pessary for 6 nights and tablet fluconazole 150mg once weekly for 3 weeks.maintain hyigene.you should clean vagina with v- wash solution daily.(prescription drugs).

Hope it helps.

Feel free to ask further.

Thanks.
