yeast infection? herpes? std? please help!!

I'm not sure if this is the right place but I really need some kind of help. I am 18 and I believe that I may have herpes or something of that nature but I dnt want to psych myself out just yet. This all started maybe three or four weeks ago. I had unprotected sex with my boyfriend/fiance/baby's father (of 2 years) and we're in a monogomous relationship. The day after we had sex I shaved my vaginal area for the first time. The next night my vagina was swollen, itchy, burning, and my skin was gone. I had my mother check it out and she said I had jus shaved too close. This lasted maybe a week and a half. About two weeks ago the itching came back but wit a thick white discharge and there was a thick white substance around my vaginal walls. Recently I've formed paper like cuts on the left side between my inner and outer vaginal lips and on my cliterous. The cuts are ok until I touch or wipe down there. There is also a little rash that dissapears then reappears. I'm really scared. I have no idea what is going on. Someone please help me!!

It could be some form of bactieral infection from a combo of the shaver was it a new razor? and a bacterial infection from the sperm and your fluids maybe it formed bc of acid in your vagina is not that strong to fight the sperm from fighting bacteria forming. I would just call the Gnyo and tell them your having some discomfort and would like a pap. I hope to god that its not herpes.

I also just started taking birth control and I heard that it causes hormone inbalance and it could cause yeast infections. Could this be the culprit of my problems?
