STD?: Vaginal itching and discharge is caused by one of two things: yeast (fungal) infection or STD. Since you have been treated for the Yeast infection and it did not resolve, you should return to your Dr and ask for STD testing. It is vital that STD's are treated quickly so that additional complications do not arise. STD's are typically treated with oral or injected antibiotics.
