O Connor agony auntthis could be thrush hun, you should go to your gyno or GP and get checked out just in case. im sure its nothing, but it could be a reaction to something or an std so you need to find out asap. dont worry hun, im sure its thrush

TT agony auntIt sounds alot like thrush my dear. This is not necessarily an STD. Thrush is very common among women under 20 years of age; sexually active or not, due to hormonal changes.

The pill, some anti-biotics, and having sex with someone who has thrush can also cause it.

A small course of anti-biotics from your GP, or some medicines and creams from the chemist will sort your problem right out.

I may be wrong about the diagnosis however. It does not sound to me like you have your self an A&E case, but i would take a trip to the clinic to reassure your self.
