Welcome at HCM
I have gone through your query and being your physician i completely understand your health concerns.
For how long u are suffering from it? Any other associated problem? like diabetes or hypertension? are you sexually active?
As you have tried the medications , in my opinion you should see your gynaecologist so that you can be properly assessed. Vaginal swabs for culture and sensitivity testing is very appropriate in this regard.
You should be started on empirical antibiotics that should be changed according to the culture and sensitvity report
hope it helps
Meanwhile stay calm and maintain adequate hygiene.
Get well soon
Hope your query is adequately addressed if you still have any feel free to ask
