Irritated vagina..

About a couple of days ago, I noticed my vagina feeling peculiar. Now, it's much worse -- there's a lot of itching/irritation, and it's pretty red down there. The (little) discharge I've been having is really thick and white, and has properties not unlike those of marzipan.. (Seems to be the same inside, from what I've checked with a tampon.)

A few months ago, I came off birth control pills, and last week I had my period. A month ago I took an ECP. I have sex regularly (with a condom).

Would appreciate it if anyone could even point me in the right direction, as I've scoured the net but can't seem to find anything very useful. It's definitely not a yeast infection.

There is a new test that you can buy now to check for yeast or bacterial infections. I would start there and if you still are having problems, I would have it checked.

I had something similar to your symptoms.  It ended up -it was the brand of condoms! Try changing to another brand.  Make sure it is lubricated.
