Just personel hygiene is not enough.Soaps , dettol, deodrants to be avoided. Use oil based soaps to clean. Even toilet tissue causes allergy.
Diet consisting of curds,greens and fruits are to be used as they have a probiotic effect keeping the ph of vagina normal.
Next Steps
Need to see the gynaecologist for further medication
