i have had everything removed apart from my ovaries.

Recently over the past two months I've been having alot going on down there, irritating, stinging but no pain with going to toilet or anything and some discharge, ranging from very thick smooth white to thinner and more liquid like, no smell. I've had two swabs over the past two months, one come back saying a small amount of candida found, second said nothing grew.. however still having the unpleasant symptoms, pretty sure it's Thrush still, do have Dr's booked this week. but just wanted to know if anyone else who's had a hysterectomy.. experienced anything similar?

I just can't figure out what could be causing it, as online gives examples but I don't fit within those reasons. Other than I had a small course of antibiotics about A week or so before the first swab, but dont explain it recurring again? also if anyone has any suggestions for treatment as Dr's 1 tablet trick obviously hasn't worked, and would love to feel 'normal' down there now! TIA xx
