Hi
Last weekend, I had some vulva itching that was pretty intense. I also was noticing that my discharge was white, a bit clumpy and had a sweet smell to it. So, I went to the doctor for it on Tuesday.
He told me it sounded like a yeast infection. So, I was prescribed two of the diflucan pills that are for yeast infection and was sent on my way. I have finished the pills, but I am still having itching down there on and off. I am experiencing burning as well. It feels like the skin down there is tender and burns from how much I have been itching.
I am really worried now it’s not a yeast infection and is something worse like lichen schlerosus or bacterial vaginosis. My discharge does not smell fishy or anything, but the itching worries me. I’ve had issues with itching down there for awhile on and off since December. The skin will also feel dry sometimes and just sore. Is it possible to have like an external yeast infection? It itches like on the inside of one of the labia “lips” a lot.
i am making myself so paranoid. I have never been sexually active. So, I’m not worried about a std. I just wish this itching would go away.
