I'm having a problem where I have severe
iching around the anal area? It feels
like a yeast infection and it happens
after my periods! What should I do

Use baby wipes during your period. It
sounds like some blood is getting dried
around the anal area and irritating it. It
happens!
You can do a double-wipe thing. With
normal toilet paper I usually have to go
through a couple handfuls each time
anyway.
I will say it is possible to wipe from
back to front and NOT include the anal
area. If you wipe carefully from the back
of the vuvla to the front, you will be
keeping the menstrual fluids away from
your anus. Then go through with a baby
wipe to clean it all up a second time, and
you should be good!
