Brief Answer:
Can be due to the pessary.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for trusting us with your health concern.
The whitish pieces of tissue like substance can be due to the vaginal suppository that you have used vaginally for the fungal infection. You can wash off the area properly use a vaginal wash to maintain a healthy vaginal pH and see if the discharge reappears.
In case the discharge is recurrent then it is likely to be due to the yeast infection itself. In that case it can be treated with antifungal agents like miconazole. You can use a vaginal pessary like Gyno Daktarin once a day for 2 weeks. Please follow the instructions on the package carefully.
It is also important to keep your private parts scrupulously clean. Trimming your pubic hair, not using any soap to wash your vagina and keeping the area clean and dry will help.

Please feel free to discuss further. I will be glad to answer the follow up queries that you have.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.
