Bacterial Vaginitis or Yeast infection?
I have vaginal discomfort and am not sure if I have a yeast infection or bacterial vaginitis or even something else. There is a thicker discharge, but I might be ovulating. It has a faint odor. But there is no itching but there is redness only on the right side and it burns when I walk or pee or try to clean it. This started 36 hours after sex. I have a doctor appointment in 3 days but is there any medicine I can try without fully knowing what it is?
