Yeast infection?

I've had vaginal itching and burning with white discharge after sex for 2 weeks. It went away durning my period and came back after with no burning but itching, white discharge and abdominal pain. Also white/gray clay like discharge that rolls into a ball.

It certainly sounds like a yeast infection, except for the abdominal pain, that could have nothing to do with your vaginal complaints. It also seems that the amount of discharge is excessive I would recommend you see a Gyn doctor. Good luck.

Sounds like a yeast infection , and treating it as such makes sense but if the initial treatnment is not effective in alleviating the symptoms, you should see your OBGYN.

Vaginal candida infection could cause the white discharge but not abdominal pain. Certainly is a consideration but you should be evaluated by a doctor to ensure that there are not other infections present. If you are already on fluconazole and the discharge is still present it is not a yeast infection.
