It might be/depends,: This could be a yeast infection depending on how long it's been there and if you're in good health. If it's been there for a while and you have a condition like diabetes, it's very likely to be a yeast infection. If not, it still could be but less likely. Either way it's best to see your doctor there for an examination and possible meds if it turns out to be one. Best of luck.

Possibly : Usually a vaginal yeast infection will itch considerably. You can try an OTC vaginal yeast cream as instructed by the package insert. Alternately, you can use a vinegar douche daily for 3-4 days. The vinegar is moderately acidic and this will help reset the balance between the nor yeast and bacteria found in your vagina. If one or both of these treatments are not working see your PCP.
