Hi Thank you for asking HCM. I have gone through your query. Your problem can be due to yeast infection. A swab test will be helpful to rule out this. Avoid soaps and irritants to wash the genital area and instead you can use saline or warm water. Using intimate wash daily is also good to normalize vaginal bacterial flora and PH. Using anti fungal creams like Clotrimazole will be helpful for this. This is available as over the counter in brands like Monistat or Canestan. Hope this may help you. Let me know if anything not clear. Thanks.
