Based on your symptoms, it sounds like you could be dealing with a persistant yeast infection, although other issues could be involved too. When a conventional approach isn't solving the problem long-term, Ayurveda may offer additional insights.

In Ayurveda, vaginal itching and discharge often relate to imbalances in the dosha, particularly Kapha, and sometimes Pitta. First step is to consider dietary and lifestyle factors that might be contributing.

Since you describe a thick, curd-like discharge, reduce foods known to increase Kapha: dairy products, sugar, and cold or fried foods. Focus on light and easy-to-digest meals, such as steamed vegetables and warm soups. Increase intake of warm spices that enhance digestion like ginger, cumin, and coriander. Have a glass of warm water with a slice of ginger every morning to help balance the doshas and stimulate digestion.

Yogurt might seem like a strange recommendation given it's dairy, but applying plain yogurt with active cultures topically may help balance the vaginal environment, though use sparingly.

Healthy lifestyle practices are essential. Maintain good hygiene, wear loose cotton underwear allowing air flow, and avoid synthetic fabrics that trap moisture. Keep areas dry and clean, particularly after bathing or swimming.

In terms of herbs, neem has antifungal properties. Boil a handful of neem leaves in water and let it cool. Use this water for washing the affected area.

If discomfort persists or gets worse, consult an Ayurvedic practitioner for a personalized diagnosis that considers your whole constitution (prakriti). They may suggest further herbal remedies or panchakarma treatments that assist in detoxification and restoring balance.

Finally, if conditions do not improve or symptoms worsen, it’s crucial to return to a medical professional. Continual infections can sometimes indicate a larger systemic issue. Safety first!
