Does this look like a yeast infection or something else?

I've been itchy down there lately and noticed white discharge between my labia majora and labia minora. Also, the redness. I've been kinda stressed lately because I had sex with a new partner about a month ago now. We used a condom but I know that herpes and other stds can be transmitted just by sexual contact. I'm going to see a doctor but I'm in the process of moving out of state so it will be a few weeks before i can go. What does it look like to you?

      Yes but not too much. It burns if i scratch down there which i know i shouldn't do but its so itchy! I think I'm going to buy an over the counter treatment and see if it gets better but I'm still going to see an Dr for peace of mind.

      to me that sounds exactly like a yeast infection, I would not overthink it too much but yes defiantly would visit the doctor for symptoms of those kind.
