Post infection burning pain

Experienced the worse yeast infection pain back in august 2025, waited too long to treat, eventually took diflucan afterwards. Had pelvic discomfort and irritation since, burning, and yellow discharge. I have been back to the doctors and they do not see an active infection. Did evvy test long ago and 30% disruptive bacteria bv, I didn’t take an antibiotic though at the time. My symptoms seem to fluctuate, some days aren’t too bad, while others are terrible. Whenever I have an exam, they do not see anything. It seems I feel more irritated before and after my period(around ovulation). I’ve tried good clean love moisturizer which burns when I first use it, then seems fine, but I’m still irritated and worried if my vaginal tissues are inflamed and sensitive. I got a referral for pelvic floor therapy, but haven’t made an appointment yet, worried about vulvodynia or any other chronic pain issue. I feel overwhelmed and honestly stuck by fear which is what led me here it seems. I know it doesn’t make sense, I’m in a freeze response. Does this get better? Concerned about my intimate life and overall vaginal health.
