Try to change permalink structure and resave it.

If .htaccess is wordpress default you should haven't problem.

For https i use this plugin https://it.wordpress.org/plugins/really-simple-ssl/ is very simple to use and efficient.

Let me know

After RewriteEngine On and before RewriteBase / adding this lines:

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_METHOD} !POST
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} " /(index\.php|([^?]*)/index\.php)"
RewriteRule ^ https://www.example.com/%2 [R=301,L,NE]

It works fine for me
