Hi
Thank you for asking HCM.
I have gone through query. Your problem can be most likely due to yeast infection. A swab test will be helpful to rule out the condition. For such condition you can apply anti fungal creams like clotrimazole for local application. Clotrimazole is available as over the counter in brands like monistat. Avoid using soaps and irritants and instead you can use warm water or saline. Using intimate wash will be helpful to normalize vaginal bacterial flora and PH also.
Hope this may help you. Let me know if any thing not clear.
Thanks.
