General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hi
Thank you for asking HCM.
I have gone through your query. Your problem can be due to bacterial vaginosis and associated yeast infection. A swab test should be done to rule out the condition. For such condition I would recommend combination of antibiotics like metronidazole or clindamycin with clotrimazole as vaginal suppository or as oral tablets. Using intimate wash regularly to normalize vaginal bacterial flora and PH will be helpful also.
Hope this may help you. Let me know if anything not clear.
Thanks.
I find this answer helpful
