hi, hoping someone can give some advice. I've been experiencing an extreme amount of itching and discomfort along with an awful lot of thick, clumpy, off white/yellow discharge. I also had a look inside my vagina and it was completely covered in this white stuff along the walls of my vagina. i cannot go to the doctor at the moment due to coronavirus outbreak so im wondering if anyone could shed some light on whether this is a yeast infection or bv or anything else? i was tested recently for std's and all clear.

    Hi Laura, IMO you need to be seen...or at least ask your DR if you should start anti-biotics or if they think its better to treat it as a yeast infection.... if DR advice isn't an option, you can treat a yeast infection and see if it gets better...if NOT then it may be bacterial and you can tell your Dr you treated a yeast infection and it didnt work, then you will need anti-biotics & they will just get you an RX...That is what I would do, try a Dr first and describe or send photos...Good Luck hope it clears up quickly🍀☮
