hi,
Thanks for the query.
according to your description the possibility is,
-bacterial vaginosis: this occurs due to overgrowth of natural vaginal organisms like gardenella, so this may not be detected by routine tests,
this can be precipitated by excessive douching, antibiotic usage, using harsh soaps etc, detection of clue cells by microscopy, increased vaginal pH can identify this,
you can follow measures like,
-cleaning local parts with plenty of water only,
-drinking of plenty water, taking nutritious diet,
-wear cotton inner ware, avoid tight clothing etc,
-consult gynecologist and undergo physical examination and microscopy for clue cells, then take treatment accordingly.
