Hi
Thank you for asking HCM
I have gone through your query. Your problem can be most likely due to yeast infection. A swab test will be helpful to rule out this. What you use for douching? If you use hydrogen peroxide or other irritants then better to avoid it. You can use just warm water or saline. You can also use intimate wash. Using Clotrimazole cream for local application will be helpful to clear yeast infection.

Hope this may help you. Let me know if anything not clear.
Thanks.
