What Is a Vaginal Infection?
A vaginal infection is an imbalance or inflammation in the vaginal environment, usually caused by bacteria, yeast or, less commonly, a parasite, that changes your normal discharge, smell or comfort. It is extremely common. Most women experience at least one at some point. There is nothing to feel embarrassed about bringing it up at a consultation.
- Bacterial Vaginosis (BV). An imbalance in the normal vaginal bacteria, often causing a thin discharge with a noticeable odour.
- Yeast Infection (Candidiasis). An overgrowth of naturally occurring yeast, generally causing thick white discharge, itching and irritation.
- Trichomoniasis. An infection passed through sexual contact, which can cause discharge, itching and discomfort during urination.
- Atrophic Vaginitis. Thinning and dryness of the vaginal tissue linked to lower oestrogen, common during and after menopause.
Common Symptoms of Vaginal Infection
- Unusual discharge, a change in colour, consistency or amount
- Vaginal itching or irritation
- A burning sensation, especially during urination
- An unpleasant or unusual odour
- Discomfort during intercourse
- Spotting or light bleeding unrelated to your period

Vaginal Infection Treatment Dr. Nikhil Mahadar Can Offer
Treatment depends entirely on which infection is actually present, which is why self-treating with an over-the-counter product before a proper diagnosis often does not work, or only masks the symptom temporarily. Dr. Mahadar’s evaluation identifies the specific cause before recommending anything.
- Same-visit evaluation. A pelvic examination and, where needed, a vaginal swab test, performed and reviewed at the same consultation.
- Antifungal treatment. For yeast infections, in the appropriate form and duration for the individual case.
- Antibiotic treatment. For bacterial vaginosis or trichomoniasis, based on the confirmed cause.
- Partner treatment when relevant. Some infections, such as trichomoniasis, are treated for both partners to prevent reinfection.
- Hormonal treatment. For atrophic vaginitis, when appropriate for the patient's stage of life.
- Guidance to prevent recurrence. Practical advice specific to what is actually causing your symptoms, not generic hygiene tips.
Every consultation on this topic is confidential.

Frequently Asked Questions
A vaginal infection is an imbalance or inflammation in the vaginal environment, usually caused by bacteria, yeast or a parasite, that changes your normal discharge, smell or comfort.
Common causes include bacterial imbalance, yeast overgrowth, sexually transmitted infections such as trichomoniasis and hormonal changes linked to menopause. Antibiotic use, douching and tight clothing can also contribute.
No. Some discharge is a normal part of a healthy vaginal cycle. A change in colour, smell, consistency or amount, especially alongside itching or discomfort, is what generally points to an infection worth evaluating.
Over-the-counter products can help with a confirmed, straightforward yeast infection, but treating symptoms without knowing the actual cause often does not resolve the problem and can delay proper treatment.
Some are, such as trichomoniasis. Others are not, such as bacterial vaginosis or a yeast infection, which can occur without any sexual activity at all.
Yes, some infections can recur, particularly bacterial vaginosis and yeast infections. Recurring episodes are worth a follow-up evaluation to look for an underlying cause.
Some infections, if untreated, can be relevant during pregnancy, which is why any new symptom during pregnancy is worth mentioning to Dr. Mahadar promptly rather than waiting.
