Symptoms include intense itching of the external genitalia, even with pus and pain, vaginal burning pain, which is more pronounced during urination. It is also important to pay attention to personal hygiene, avoid using tub baths or soaking in baths, to reduce the risk of infection and transmission. The discharge is creamy or cottage cheese-like in appearance. The vaginal walls are covered with white pseudomembranes, and wiping reveals redness of the mucosa.
