Hi XXXXX
You are complaining of recurrent white discharge, associated with itching. This seems to be persistent after you take treatment twice and it is recurring. You did not mention if the treatment worked and the symptoms are gone completely or not.
The problem you are having could be due to candidiasis(you are treated for this before) or trichomoniasis or chlamydia or gonorrhea(though it will lead to yellow coloured discharge). I suggest you to test diabetes with fasting blood sugar as well.
Please visit the Gynecologist and ask her test for the above conditions as well.
If it is STDs the treatment should be given for both the partners simultaneously, and you should use barriers like condoms during intercourse till the treatment completes.
Let me know if you have further queries.
All the very best
