One likely possibility is that you may have a yeast infection, which is harmless and can be easily treated. I would recommend seeing a doctor, who can make the proper diagnosis and give you the correct treatment. It is important to see a doctor, because different infections need different treatments. But do not worry, most likely your symptoms will disappear very soon after you start treatment. Your partner probably also will need treatment. Your doctor will give you all the information you will need.
You mentioned haven taken antibiotics. Sometimes yeast infections come after treatment with antibiotics. Yeast infections are not treated with antibiotics. It is most important only to take medications as prescribed by a doctor.
Sincerely,
