Hello. I'm experiencing some very unpleasant symptoms: constant itching, a strange, foul-smelling discharge, and a general feeling of discomfort that hasn't gone away for three days now. This has never happened before, so I'm a little panicked. Could you please tell me what tests I should get first, and should I rush to the doctor or try some over-the-counter suppositories to ease the discomfort?

I understand completely; this is an extremely debilitating condition. The main thing is, don't try to self-medicate until you understand the cause, as it could be anything. I would recommend getting a general pap smear first to rule out fungal infection. Hang in there, modern medicine is very good at treating these things!

If such symptoms appear, it's important to act promptly but competently, as improper treatment can lead to chronicity. Often, these symptoms indicate a microflora imbalance. BV Infection requires professional diagnosis to accurately identify the pathogen and determine an effective course of treatment. Don't put off a visit to a specialist. If you can't get to a clinic in person today, you can use modern online services for a consultation.
