I've been experiencing some dryness in my vaginal area and it's starting to itch really badly. On top of that, I've noticed some spots similar to pimples appearing too. I'm really not sure what's going on and could use some advice on what to do next. I live in Mulund but I didn't see Mumbai as an option. Can you help me figure this out?

You can use an over-the-counter antifungal medication like Clotrimazole (brand name Canesten) cream or suppositories. Apply the cream externally around the vagina or insert the suppository into the vagina according to the package instructions. Additionally, you can take an oral antifungal medication like Fluconazole (brand name Diflucan) 150mg as a single dose. Make sure to follow the recommended dosage and duration of treatment. It is also important to maintain good hygiene and wear cotton underwear to keep the area dry. If your symptoms persist or worsen, please consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation and management.

I'm a virgin, but I have a boyfriend, and we've been doing some other stuff together. I've noticed that when I get really excited by his touch or kiss, a whitish milky fluid that can sometimes be transparent comes out of my vagina. It also happens when I masturbate. After this, I feel kind of weak and get pain in my legs. Occasionally it also gets a bit itchy. Is it normal to have this kind of discharge along with the weakness?

The milky fluid you are describing could be normal vaginal discharge, which can vary in consistency and color throughout your menstrual cycle. However, if you are experiencing weakness, pain in your legs, and itching, it may be a sign of an underlying infection. I recommend you to consult a doctor for further evaluation and possible treatment.
