General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hi
Thank you for asking HCM
I have gone through your query. Your problem can be due to yeast infection most likely. Using anti fungal vaginal creams like monistat for local application. This is available as over the counter. Avoid soaps and irritants to wash the genital area. Use just warm water. Using intimate wash daily is also good to normalize vaginal flora and PH there by helps in preventing irritation and getting infection.

Hope this may help you. Let me know if anything not clear.
Thanks.
