Brief Answer: Fungal infection Detailed Answer: Dear Arihant. Welcome to XXXXXXX I am Dr Anshul Varshney , I will try to help you. Vaginal Itching can be due to fungal infection , which may be associated with white discharge per vaginally also . It might be also possible that she developed some allergic reaction to condom in case you used. She may go to a gynaecologist for a local examination.

Brief Answer: Fluconazole 200 mg Detailed Answer: Dear Arihant. Stat Single dose of Fluconazole is 200 mg. It is initially taken stat and if required repeated after 15 days. This varies from clinician to clinician. However I would still recommend that if she doesn't get relief, she should see a doctor for examination.
