What is wrong with my vagina?

So, almost three years ago I started noticing itching in and around the opening of my vagina. Soon, I also started noticing that it would hurt when I wiped after peeing. When I had sex, it would start hurting and I would have to stop in the middle of it. It took me a long time to get it checked out for personal reasons.

A little under a year ago I finally got it checked out. I had already read about yeast infections online, so I came to the health care professional saying I thought I had one. After that I started taking Canesten, a cream that I put in and around the opening. It always just came back, and I took more Canesten. The last two times, I even took suppositories. The doctor said that if it is a yeast infection, it should go away after using those just once.

Now, it hurts so much under sex, and it even hurts sometimes when I pee. I have been tested for chlamydia and gonorrea, so it is neither of those. My boyfriend says it looks really read sometimes, but nothing else. No warts or anything like that. I have also had A LOT of discharge in periods. Everything really varies.

Does anyone know anything about this? Please help!

Hey,

I would recommend that you go see a special dr that specializes in the skin of the vagina. I had something similar but it was not a yest infection. In fact it was a skin issue and extreme dryness now that I use special soap I am cured finally after so long. Please have many different opinions before you give up. 1 dr might not know but another will. Good luck! Also try wearing cotton panties?
