Having a white discharge usually is indicative of a fungal infection like Thrush. You may also experience itchiness and soreness.
Make a an appointment with your doctor so that he can take a swab and identify the problem. Sometimes the doctor won't do a swab as he will be able to tell by your description and symptoms.
The doctor may prescribe a vaginal pessary and/or oral medication. Your sexual partner may need to be treated too.
Don't use soaps and shower gels or feminine sprays, because this changes the pH level of the skin. Taking antibiotics can also bring on fungal problems.
