Hi,
Thanks for posting in HCM.
Vaginal yeast infection (vaginal candidiasis) causes white, cottage cheese like or curd like discharge.
You can use topical antifungal pessaries or vaginal tablets containing clotrimazole. You can follow one to three days regimen.
In case the infection is severe, you can add antifungal medications containing fluconazole to be taken orally.
Hope the information provided would be helpful.
All the best.
