According to the symptoms you reported, you might be experiencing a yeast infection. In order to confirm the diagnosis, you might want to visit a gynecologist. Meanwhile, you might want to use over-the-counter antifungal drugs.


Also, check your immunity because many of the yeasts cause opportunistic infections (infections with micro-organisms that multiply only when there is not another micro-organism present or the strength of the immune system is decreased).
