What Causes Increased Vaginal Discharge, Itchy Vagina And Burning Urination?

I have an abnormal amount of discharge, hurts when I urinate and itching in my vagina. I ve been with my boyfriend for a year and never had any of these symptoms before, I ve had it for about a month? And need to get it checked out but he doesn t have an std so maybe it s something to do with me? ( I ve only slept with him and no one else)

Kindly take the following measures to overcome the symptoms.

2. You need to take antifungal medication like Fluconazole in the form of pessary as a single dose.
3. Along with it, you need to take a course of antibacterial medication like Metronidazole.
4. To control itching, you have to take Tablet. Levocetrizine once a day.
