Hi ,
How are you doing ?
The possibilities are
1. Any vaginal infection which would have come to you during sex, even if long back. The infection can colonise in vagina & the stump of vagina, which can come up on & off. This can cause a white or yellowish or grayish or brownish discharge, which can be with or without foul smell , itching, feeling of urinary infection, burning or frequency of urination. This will need an evaluation by gynecologist & treatment with antibacterial + antifungal orally & locally into the vagina.
2. After hysterectomy , the blood flow to ovary reduces & hormone level may be so much reduced , that you get the postmenopausal symptoms. You could be having Atrophic vaginitis . The vaginal wall will be dry & the surface keeps oozing out discharge, having a burning sensation.
This will need a local application of estrogen cream into vagina.
Hope I have clarified your queries, do write back if any more queries
All the best
