hi, it could be from them yes... some woman are sensitive down there to perfumed things....Have you used them before? and have you got any itchiness around the area?..if you are itchy and it is a bit sore then you have contracted a yeast infection more than likely from the norforms, if that is the case you will need a thrush tablet from a chemist to clear the infection. If you have used them before with no problems then you could still have thrush but i would contact your doctor for advice and treatment...jenny
