Brief Answer:
Vaginal infection

Detailed Answer:
Hello

Thanks for the query

It looks like you have a vaginal infection. It can be treated with antibiotics like Tab Levofloxacin once daily for 5 days. Please approach a gynaecologist to send the discharge for culture to see which organism is growing. Avoid unprotected sexual intercourse until you are better.

I hope I was of help, if you have any further queries please get back to me

Can you tell me what triggers these kinds of infections? Could it be my partner, bc everytime we have sexual intercourse he irritates me

Answered by Dr. Rakesh Madhyastha (48 minutes later)

Brief Answer:
Sexual intercourse

Detailed Answer:
Hello

Vaginal infections are common in sexually active people. It is hard to tell if your partner gave it to you unless he also has similar issues like penile discharge or a urinary tract infection.
Usually during intercourse anal flora tends to move into the vagina causing an infection that is why it is always important to wash up and urinate after sexual intercourse
