I've been on the pill Kariva (generic
Mircette) for about three months and have
had some issues with vaginal itch for the
same time period.
Last month I started get yeast infection
like symptons two weeks into my cycle so I
ate tons of plain yogurt and used a garlic
suppository for a few days and they went
away...Now this month it's worse.
Last Sunday around my butt was really
itchy (the skin) and the lower lips of my
labia were also super itchy. I don't have
any discharge, smell and I practice safe
sex.
I also have eczema really bad right now on
my legs, arms and on the front of my
vagina (by the pubic hair) and I'm
wondering if maybe I have eczema on my
labia as well?
Or maybe this is just a pill side effect
that needs to be dealt with?
I have a doctor's appt in a week and a
half but I just wanted to see what you
guys (or gals) thought.
i dont know much about the pill but it
very well could be a side effect, maybe
you should read up on the pill your
taking. Also it really sounds like a yeast
infection to me

seems like you may have an infection
go to the dr before it spreads

is it possible to have a yeast infection
with no visible discharge? I've been
having a little bit of 'normal'
looking/smelling discharge, but the itch
feels the same as a yeast infection (it's
right at the beginning of my vulva).

does the discharge smell foul or bad? if
so then you probably have a yeast
infection

It doesn't smell (not that I can tell).
It's a little more than usual but I don't
know if that's just because it's close to
my period or what.
I did a yogurt suppository last night and
I'll do another today. It feels much
better after doing that...
