General & Family Physician,  's  Response

Hi
Thank you for asking HCM.
I have gone through your query. Antibiotic therapy can cause yeast infection or dysbacteriosis in vagina. So your problem can be most likely due to this. A swab test will be helpful to confirm this.
For yeast infection you can apply anti fungal creams like miconazole or clotrimazole. These are available as over the counter in brands like monistat or canestan. Using intimate wash daily is also good to normalize your vaginal bacterial flora and PH.

Hope this may help you. Let me know if anything not clear.
Thanks.
I find this answer helpful
