welcome to Health care magic.
1.Your symptoms are more towards UTI - urinary tract infection / fungal infection / STD sexually transmitted diseases.
2.You have not mentioned any thing related to bowel pathology, other that previously you have got infected.
3.Sharing bathrooms has very less chances to get transmitted any diseases.
4.In this case, a swab from the vaginal discharge, urine complete analysis, and an ultrasound abdomen pelvis would help you to get better.
5.Get an appointment with your GP and get the needful investigations done and a course of antibiotics would help.
Hope it helps you. Wish you a good health.
Anything to ask ? do not hesitate. Thank you.
