last few weeks my vagina has been producing a large amount of watery discharge. i let it be thinking it was hormonal. around a week ago my vagina was very sore to the touch. i noticed a sore and went to the clinic the next morning to get swabbed. i got swabbed for yeast infection and herpies plus a pee sample. i am in a lot of pain experiencing burning, sharp pains in my vagina, and extremely sore to the touch. i was also prescribed yeast infection antibiotics that have not helped and its getting worse. i get my results back soon but i am VERY worried:( image

    HI Jenny

    I am currently going through the same thing and have been googling my symptoms. I am awaiting my results back too but I think its just a severe yeast infection but im unsure. I have attached my photos as well to see if its similar.
