What Causes White Covering Over Genital Area And Vulva Along With Itching Sensation?

I'm not sure if I have thrush.I've had yeast infections before with the white discharge and itching.But this is like a white covering over the genital area and vulva.It can be rubbed off and it's dry, but I've never had anything like that before, so I'm not sure if it's thrush??

Hi, thank you for asking Healthcare Magic.
With this presentation, it is possible that it is still yeast infection. The difference between this one and the previous infection may be the extent of infection. You may need to do a vaginal swab test to confirm the infection.

I hope I have answered your query.
I wish you well
