What Causes White Vaginal Discharge And Itching?

I had symptoms of a yeast infection starting about five days ago with the bread/yeast like smell, the discharge, and the itch and redness. However, after about a week (actually around the time that I went swimming in a chlorinated pool) the discharge went away. It was cottage cheese like in texture but now it's back to semi regular discharge. My vaginal area is drier than usual, but that might be because the itch is still present at some points during the day. The discharge does not smell. At first, when I had the cottage cheese like discharge it looked white on my hands and fingers, but when I would wipe with tissue it had a greenish tinge. I'm not sure if this is just a yeast infection or something more. I have not been using any treatment yet, as I am waiting to try ad get an appointment with my doctor, however I have been consuming more yogurt.
