Not really : It can be light pink, but not white. If it's white, i would suspect a yeast infection or other abnormality. Have your gyn have a look they're the experts on vagina variations and diseases.

Several things: There are several things it could be but you are going to need to see a doctor to know for sure. Yeast is one possibility. Allergic reaction to an irritant, herpes, vulvar vestibulitis, shingles are some others. This should not be hard to figure out for us to figure out and get you some help. Call and schedule to get help.

Spots inside vagina: They are very likely to be sebaceous cysts. Sebaceous cysts are usually painless, slow-growing, small bumps or lumps that move freely under the skin. It's important not to touch or try to remove the substance inside to prevent tenderness, swelling, and infection of a sebaceous cyst. Sebaceous cysts most often disappear on their own and are not dangerous. Women fear that they are herpes.

Group B strep?: I presume that you were told while pregnant that you are colonized with group b streptococcus. That means next to nothing to you. It is much more dangerous to your child, which is why you were put on antibiotics before delivery. It is a colonization to you. That is, it is not an infection that you are going to cure with antibiotics.
