Could be a yeast infection but I'd say best bet would be go to the doc to make sure. Have you been on any antibiotics lately?

I agree it sounds like a yeast infection also known as thrush but if you haven't had it before going to seeing a doctor or sexual health clinic maybe a good idea. You could also visit a local pharmacy for advice there are many products available and they are trained to look into medical interactions etc.
These such matters actually we're the topic of conversation at a girls night I went to awhile back and one friend said that if she wears anything other than cotton underwear she's guaranteed to get a yeast infection the same applies with for another friend but she also said thongs or g string style undies are a no go too. They also recommend that when you have one you should cut down on the amount of sugar you eat someone did explain why but I have forgotten. But the biggest thing to remember is that it's a very common problem which anyone including men can get an it's nothing to be embarrassed about

Some médications, or antibiotics can be responsible. Yes if you eat lots of sugar, white bread it can feed the yeast infection even more. First advice consult a Doctor if you can or check with a chemist. Another natural thing you can do is to up your garlic intake, it's a natural antibacterial.

You will do fine. It can be uncomfortable at first but its part of being a woman. Maybe find a woman doctor. I did and it was the best thing I did.
