itchy vagina

[need to get this out of my head]

since last august ive had a herpes scare. and ive even posted on here a few times. My doctor, me and other forum users have come to the conculsion no herpes. But my vagina itches on and off. Its been extra itchy this week and i dont really think its herpes nor do i think its yeast. does anyone ever experience this? and if so is there anything i can use to stop it? thanks guys!

Hi I'm 16 years old, lately I've had a very itchy vagina. I've tried all sorts of creams to sooth the itch. It works for a week or two and then comes back. But recently I have discovered 2 small lumps on the left side of my vagina, close to the middle. These lumps seem to be growing outwards. I've had sexual intercourse with 2 partners, but this has all come about after the second, I don't know what to do and I'm really scared its some sort of serious infection/ STI. I'm also on the contraceptive pill if this makes any difference? Appreciate all advice guys

It depends on if the itch is on the inside or on the outside. I have had a problem with itching on my outer labia, and benedryl has a gel anti itch cream that actually works. Otherwise I agree with above post, a bacterial infection will cause a lot of itching. Good luck...

I went thru the same thing for several months...ended up being a bacterial infection....go to ur doc and ask them if it could be bacterial if it is they give you a cream u instert for a week and a yeast infection pill to get rid of everything at once in case it is a yeast infection as well...
