Ok, so since the beginning of Dec. the
opening of my vagina has been really
weird. First I thought it was the
beginning of a yeast infection, bc it was
moderately itchy and irritated. So I used
an over the counter cream. Never went
away... then the itching and irritation
would get worse, then almost disappear.
Went to the doc and he said it was a yeast
infection, told me to use more cream.
Never went away. Went back and then was
told, maybe its Trich... heres a
prescription and some more cream. Still
hasn't gone away. I don't know what else
it could be. Is it possible to be allergic
to my own discharge? Because during my
last period, I used tampons the whole
time... and never had any problems. Then
when my period was over it came back
again. There is no real change in my
discharge color or consistency. No
noticable sores or bumps. Just red,
irritated and somehwat itchy. No burning
when I pee.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

did your doc ever do a test? They can do a
simple urine test to determine if it's a
bacterial or yeast infection.
If it's a yeast infection, antibiotics
won't help. If it's a bacterial infection,
anti fungals won't help. Also, antibiotics
can cause yeast infections and antifungals
can cause bacterial infections. You need
to figure out what it is!

Well, I'm having similar vaginal issues.
Doctors aren't helping(especially since
ive been moving around so ive been
changing doctors).
Ive been researching alternative ways to
get better . Anyone else have good results
with natural supplement or products?
