Question
This is unlikely to be a fungal infection as the discharge tends to be clumpy and white without any odour.
It sounds more like a bacterial infection or can even be a combination of bacterial and fungal. It is best to get this discharge tested for possible infections.
I agree that seeing a gynaecologist directly might make the most sense as regardless of history taking by the GP, the ultimate confirmatory diagnosis is still ultrasound of your ovaries. They would be better placed to discuss with you on treatment modalities.
As correctly mentioned, there is no link between IPL and fetal effect in pregnancy. In my current practice, I advise my patients to consider IPL/Laser/Aesthetic treatments only after pregnancy and breast-feeding. Hope that this helps!
