    It looks like it could be a yeast infection if it gets bad enough it can spread to your anus. Do you notice any redness or soreness there?

      It sounds like a yeast infection you can get them without having sex so you might just be able to tell her and get some medication at the store. I would watch the surrounding areas and make sure it doesn't spread. Did you say that you do have redness, soreness or itchiness in your anus?

    It could be yeast infection. The color is kinda off white maybe your period is approaching? Don't get to anxious just observe if there's any changes for a couple of days.

    A trich discharge is frothy, thin and has a foul smell. If it is an STD, you have symptoms like painful urination or pain in the lower abdomen.
