Itching, Burning Sensation, White Discharge Post Sex, Latex Or Lubricant Allergy Of Condom ?
Hi Its been 6 months since i had sex with my hubby. Starting having this month only. As long as i had unprotected sex with my hubby, i didnt have any prob. For twice we had sex with condom recently. For past 3 days i am having very bad itching, and burning sensation with thick white discharge seen on the walls of my labia and vagina. It doesnt stain my panty.sometimes lower stomach pain too. I have had a sort of same thing last year too once, with more discharge staining my panty and i was prescribed cansoft cl, flucan and some antibiotics.I feel it could be latex or lubricant allergy of condom. Could it be?i need some over counter medications. i am in XXXXXX.pls advice

hello madam,
welcome to HCM,
your symptoms of itching , thick white discharge, lower stomach pain , suggests that you are suffering from vaginal infection. it could be a fungal infection since the description given by you of the discharge is a thick white, which generally occurs in fungal infection.
it could be an allergy as well since you have itching and burning sensation. you did not mention if you have got any rashes, or may be the white discharge may be covering any rashes present.
at present what i can suggest you is maintain personal hygiene, keep your private parts dry as far as possible, maintain abstinence till the infection subsides.
you can use cansoft cl or candid/ flucan vaginal cream if it is available over the counter at your place.
thank you for consulting,
take care and get well soon
