What the heck is this~NSFW

I was treated for BV and a yeast infection in June of last year, I took a number of antibiotics but was unaware of how harmful they are to your microbiome without a probiotic so I never took any. I’ve since been tested for both and the tests are all negative but what hasn’t changed is this white discoloration around my vaginal opening. My gynecologist also said it seems to be inflamed and previously told me I have no protective bacteria. Since then I have been taking oral probiotics, vaginal probiotics, drink Keifer, drink lots of water, changed my diet, workout daily, switched to cotton only underwear, switched to honey pot wash then to just water when cleaning, tried boric acid supps which fixed it just a little, I even use only baby wipes when wiping or cleaning. Yet nothing seems to be working for this, there’s no itching, burning, no smell or discomfort, it simply looks…off. I was beginning to have sex with a partner and they were thrown off by the color and no longer wanted to proceed. I feel like it’s just the skin b/c when I insert my vaginal supps. there’s little to no discharge on my finger, when I wipe after peeing the discharge is clear with small traces of white in them. I’m at a loss on what to do about this. The pictures I’ve attached are how it looks after a shower and after a full day. Does anyone know what this could be?
Edit- the only time my vagina looks normal is 2-3 days leading up to my cycle, during my cycle and 2-3 days after. After that it slowly turns white again

Thin but clumpy discharge

The discharge that comes out is either a little creamy or clear which is normal but when I put my fingers inside of me this sour, thin but kind of clumpy discharge coats my fingers. There is no smell, it smells like regular vagina, tastes sour, there’s no itch or burn. Is this normal?

NSFW- Discharge

Any idea what this discharge could mean? It’s clumpy but thin? Kind of a darker white tint, no smell, sour Greek yogurt like taste. My cycle was the second to last week of April. I use vaginal suppositories and try to examine my finger each time I pull it out, the amount of this is typically normal but today this amount was more than usual

I’m between Vitanica and Vagibiom for vaginal probiotics. (I wanted to try Lifespace but I’m too nervous to use them vaginally) I was sold on Vagibiom until I read in the beyond bv Facebook group that it isn’t recommended because of the fatty coconut oils it contains. Does anyone have any success stories with Vagibiom? I’d prefer to get that one because it’s easier to find and I can pick it up in the store but I’d rather just get the best one
