Hey, just wanted to know if anyone has an idea about what kind of infection this is? I've never had a look at my vagina before so I'm not sure what's normal and what isn't and I've only started to worry since I got my first sex partner. I'm also her first sex partner and we've only done oral sex and touching the vagina and whatnot. I'll be going to the doctor in about a week or so but I just wanted to get an idea.

I started to get itchiness and pain on the area that is red then later on the rest of my vagina began to swell and get itchy. My discharge is normal colour but sometimes clumpy and sometimes too watery so maybe a yeast infection? And possibly got the tear when my partner wasn't being gentle enough? Kind of freaking out ngl

    Hi, It could be a yeast infection from the description of your symptoms. Were you fingered as well as oral ? bacteria from the mouth and fingernails can cause infections specially when your vagina never had anything like that before. Does your discharge smell sweet or fishy ?

    Be careful with oral sex, it's risky because your partner might carry bacteria from their mouth to your vulva and vagina. I am not a doctor but I'm currently dealing with a yeast infection that was possible caused by oral sex
