Vulvar Infection: A yeast infection, in addition to other infectious agents, can be responsible for these symptoms. Hormonal changes and stress can contribute to the condition. It is best to make an appointment with your gynecologist to undergo an evaluation.

Let me help: The most common types of vulvovaginitis are genital candidiasis (also called yeast infection), trichomoniasis, and nonspecific vaginitis (also called haemophilus vaginalis vaginitis, bacterial vaginitis or gardnerella vaginalis vaginitis). Some types of vulvovaginitis are more rare than others.
