General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hello.
Thank you for contacting HCM.

I have gone through your question and the most probable diagnosis is Vaginitis. If I was your treating physician I would perform a vaginal swab culture and urine culture first of all to reach the confirm diagnosis and its type....it maybe either of three ( bacterial, fungal or trichomoniasis).
Then my treatment plan would be according to the culture reports.
I would suggest you consult your local gynaecologist to get your tests done and further management.

Meanwhile take extra care of hygiene of genital area, wear cotton undergarments and frequent changing of tampons.

I hope this answers your query. Please feel free to contact HCM again if you have any concerns.
Wishing you good health.
