Vaginal problems
i have had a problem with my vagina for the past 2 to 3 weeks. my symptoms are yellowish discharge, fishy odor, very dry skin on the labia majora, bump/pimple looking on the labia majora, and itchy. do you think it's due to unprotected or protected sex? or do you think it's due to my feminine pads? please comment back as soon as possible ! thank you

Hi!
If you were my patient, I would suggest testing for Chlamydia and Gonorrhea. I might also culture the bump checking for herpes. Finally, I would test for bacterial vaginosis which is probably what you have. It is an imbalance in the bacteria in the vagina which can usually be treated with antibiotics.
Good luck!
