What Causes Sensitive Clitoris And Thick Whitish Vaginal Discharge?

Hi, I am a nineteen year old female, and for nearly half a year now ive been having problems with my vagina. It all started when three members of my house hold, all female, got a yeast infection at the same time from what I can only assume to be the water or something, but while the other two women are fine, things just seem to have just gotten worse for me. I have treated myself for a yeast infection three times, once for bacterial vaginosis because a doctor at a walk in clinic suggested I try it, and am currently trying the yeast infection treatment again. For a brief week after my third yeast infection treatment all seemed well, but soon after my discharge started to look strange again. It is thick and white, so I assumed another yeast infection, but recently I have also noticed my vagina has felt less sensitive, especially my clitoris, and even my orgasms feel much more weak, even when I m not using the medication. I thought this may be from bruising but it has been a week since this loss of sensitivity and nothing looks wrong with my vagina or clitoris on the outside. I also do not have my periods regularly at all, they vary from 1-3 a year, and my doctor isnt exactly sure of the cause od that in case that may be a factor. I have been sexually active before, but only with another woman and not since this all started. Please help, this is all incredibly frustrating for me when until now, aside from the lack of periods, I havent had a single issue down there. Thank you.

Hello,

* As per my clinical experience, the sensitive clitoris with thick whitish vaginal discharge do indicate vaginal infection most likely.

* It is the candida species responsible for majority of the fungal infections of vulva and vagina. My guidelines at present

- drink plenty of liquids
- cranberry sachet or tablet daily
- anti inflammatory medicine as diclofenac with bedanzen forte
- antibiotic as metronidazole with clindamycin or gentamicin
- pre and probiotics with lacto bacillus

- vaginal hygiene care
- avoid use of same tampons for prolong period of times
- avoid sexual activities if active
- control of blood sugar.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr. Bhagyesh V. Patel
