I've been experiencing a white, skin-like discharge mixed with a curd-like substance from my private area. There's no itching, smell, or pain involved. I'm a bit concerned and unsure of what's happening. I'm currently using an over-the-counter yeast infection treatment, but I'm not sure if it's the right approach. Could you please give me some guidance on what this might be and if I'm doing the right thing?
