What is going on with my body, greasy hair, spotty and bacterial infection

I’m 13 months post partum with my third (still got no period back) but in the last month my hair is so greasy! I can wash it at night and it’ll be greasy by the morning. I’ve also started getting spots again!! And now I think I have some sort of vaginal bacterial infection because I have had fishy discharge.
so fed up, has anyone experienced this? Could my periods be coming back?

Probably that then... maybe start considering stopping soon .. i told myself I'd stop at 2 years and kept with that, but however you feel's best for you 💖
