Hi Thank you for asking HCM. I have gone through your query. Urinary infection and vaginal infection or irritation can coexist. Even yeast infection or bacterial vaginosis is possible in vagina along with urinary tract infection. A swab test from vagina and urine routine examination as well as culture will be helpful to find this. Taking proper antibiotic therapy and using intimate wash is good to normalize this.
Hope this may help you. Let me know if anything not clear. Thanks.
