Hello ma'am and welcome.

A cottage cheese appearance of vaginal discharge is an indication of a fungal infection, and requires being addressed with anti-fungal medication. Avoid the use of antibiotics as they destroy the protective bacteria that can cause the overgrowth of yeast.

Hope this helps.

Best wishes.
