Chance of thrush?

Hi, first time here so sorry if this has already been asked. My girlfriend of 5 years has recently told me that she's been getting a white discharge for a few days after we have intercourse (apparently this has been going on for a few months and we always use protection). She insists that it is thrush and I should get myself checked out. I've looked into thrush and I don't have any of the symptoms and I've noticed no change for me at all, yet it only happens to her after we have sex. Is it likely to be thrush, or could it be something else? Should I get checked out? And if so where do I go? Any help would be appreciated

By protection, are you using condoms? Cause it could be that.

Thrush is also caused by a change in bacteria in there, which sex can also cause even if you don't have thrush.

It could be thrush... It could be latex allergy.

You could start by just using the over the counter thrush treatment yourself for a few weeks. You don't have to be checked out.
