Welcome to Healthcare Magic
You could be having vaginal infection like Bacterial vaginosis or candidiasis. If your periods are delayed possibility of hormonal disturbance should also be kept in mind. Drink plenty of water. Consult your Gynaecologist in this regard t help diagnose and treat appropriately. Keep the vaginal area clean, avoid excessive cleaning as this also predisposes to certain kind of infections. Get your blood sugar tested as well.
