Brief Answer:
Can have infection otherwise also.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for trusting us with your health concern.
The best way to diagnose a vaginal infection is to get a vaginal swab culture done. An infection can be present without a sexual transmission also. Vaginal fungal infections are very common. No need to worry. Wait for the detailed results and start with the proper treatment.
Please feel free to discuss further. I will be glad to answer the follow up queries that you have.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.
