As others have already said - be persistant. If your doc just says something to the effect that it really isn't a big deal, or it might go away on it's own, or that it's all psychological - DON"T let it be the final answer. Just say "but" I need help now AND I'm going to conseling too. Ask her to check for all the possible vaginal conditions including yeast, bacterial infection, or anything else you can think of.
Look up all the information you can find on a site such as WedMD and read all you can. The more armed with knowledge about the possible conditions (as scary as some may sound) the more educated about your situation you will feel and sound. Your Dr will see that you are serious about getting this taken care of. Make sure they know how long you've been dealing with this. If they shug you off after you have pushed to get things checked out then let them know that you are going to another Dr in another clinic. It will tell them you aren't satisfied with your care - they may wake up then. I am looking at worst case scenerio though. If you find a good responsible Dr they will start out looking for all the possibilities right away without you having to push. I wish you good luck.
