Sound like u have bacteria vaginosis. Many people get it after childbirth. Its recurring. But you doctor should give u a special cream or pills to balance the good and bad bacteria in your vagina. Pills like azo can help if taken daily, drink cranberry juice, and eat yogurt. My doc also told me that u can insert plain yogurt into the vagina.

It's probably a chemistry thing. For example, a high vaginal pH can cause this problem. If that's the case, some boric acid (in a pill capsule and inserted a few times a day) can help with the problem.

But really, how much is it? It's normal to have some discharge all of the time. It's the body's way of keeping the vagina clean. It's a good and healthy thing. If it's a LOT of discharge, then maybe you have bacterial vaginosis or something. Your doctor needs to conduct an exam and start thinking of things other than a yeast infection.

Your body's chemistry may just be different now and you may have increased discharge. I know people who have had that same problem. Good luck on getting it figured out.

Latanya is right: you may have bacteria vaginosis.

I had the same problem for a couple of years after I gave birth to my son. My doctor gave me an internal vaginal cream that's stronger than the store-brand creams; however, I had to see him every other month until it finally stopped.

Dear E.,
I would go to see another doctor for a second opinion. You have a baby that you have to take care of now and he is priority to you. You need to make sure that you are in good health for both you and him.
Blessings
