since oct 2014 but not regularly. initially it was just itching but since last month it was discharge problem too. not any specific odour but a bit smelly. colour of discharge is off white. i don't take any other medication or oral pills.
the medicines prescribed were tab zocon t kit, cap vagilact, tab lukure and surfamix cream taken by me last month. now discharge prob is ok but itching problem still persists. right now m taking candiforce 100 for two days and flusort 150 for 5 weeks as one tab a week. my mensus date was 23rd but they have still not occured. and last month after mensus we had sex but using protection.

Brief Answer:
It is most probably a fungal infection.
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Sorry for delay in my response.
With your history and symptoms it is most probably due to fungal infection superimposed bacterial infection.
To confirm the diagnosis you should consult a Gynaecologist and get yourself examined and get your vaginal swab culture and sensitivity test done and KOH staining to see fungal strands.
For treatment you should take full course of antifungal and antibiotics medicine and cream for local application.
For better results maintain proper vaginal hygiene, drink a lot of water, use cotton undergarments, do not douche and use betadine wash, take healthy and balanced diet, do not use perfume and soapand tampoon.
Hope it is useful.
