Bleeding, burning, and itching

[brownlow63]

Hello my girlfriend just told me that for the last month she has been experienceing constant vaginal bleeding, itching, and burning so we bout some yeast infection medicine which helped with the burning and itching but the bleeding as yet to stop what else is there to do and what could be causing this.

Hello.

I wonder why your girlfriend isn't writing to me herself. At any rate, no one can diagnose her condition without doing a full exam. I suggest she go to her nearest women's clinic or Planned Parenthood to see a nurse practitioner who can tell her what's going on. She may have an infection, or be pregnant, or have some other medical condition which needs treatment ASAP. Best of luck to you. Dr. J

I used to have that same problem.however is her bleeding like a period bleeding or is it just spotting? but any who i would recommend going to the doctor to get checked because you don't to keep buying over the counter treatments that will just temporary help then risk having the symptoms coming back worse. When i personally experienced it i came to find out that i was pregnant and my body was just trying to adjust. Hope it helped good luck to both of you!
