Burning, itching, irritated (Down There)

[foxurax]

My vagina is always burning, itching, and irritated. I don't understand why.  It burns and itches so bad that it eventually turns red & burns more. It's even worse after I have sex.  Also, after I have sex, I get these a cut or two around th opening.  Mostly at the very top of the vagina & I don't know what to do about it.

I have tried the FDS soap for sensative skin, used vagisil, NOTHING works. I need help.  This reoccuring irritation is well, irritating!!!


HELP ME PLEASE!

I use the nuvaring to, and this only happens after I take it out, it remains for awhile after I put it back in too. I think its a non inclusive side effect. me and my fiancé are trying to get pregnant, so the burning doesn't help with the sexual intercourse, and it makes him raw too after awhile. I would go with a different plan for bc, because I know it can get frustrating.

maybe the toilet paper is giving bacterial infection because of the left over residue and its not letting the vagina breathe. i would say that the tp left on the vagina is a breeding ground for bacteria maybe you can go bacjk to gyn and tellthem that you have viginitisor vulvanititis and she what they say and list all of the sx and get the wiff test and them to look under the microscope to see if there is any bacteria that what my gyn use to always do and it was bacterial infection until i started taking showers and eating yogurt and not taking baths all all washing under the clitoris hood with warm water sometimes with antibacterial soap such as dial and i dont use baby powder because it has fragrance. and it drie out the vagina, and i drink plenty of waterand i never use any feminine hygiene products ever. goodluck see what the ob say goodluck sweetie.

No, no discharge.  Just burning & itching & feels raw.  I don't wipe too hard but I do get left over residue from the toliet paper around the area that to get off, I have to shower which is also annoying.


My vagina has been a problem for about a year now since I had gastric bypass, but I don't understand why that would have anything to do with it.

i think you could have an infection i would go to the doctor and get a pap smear but for relif you can use a tampon dipped in yogurt if its a yeast or bacterial infection. the yougurt whick is natural an plain that kind has freinedly bacteria it it that is in the vagina. does it smell fishy after sex or is there any discharge that is yellow or gray and watery.  goodluck hope you feel better.

Yes but I can't go on using that forever.  I believe something might be up.  I use the nuvaring, but I dont think that would have anything to do with the outside of my vagina being all red & itching/burning.  Also, I don't use condoms either...so it can't be that either.

i am presently having the same problem. i happened to have a medicine for rashes (prescription only) from a few months before when my daughter had a terrible diaper rash. i put it on.......instant relief!! it works quickly too! its called triamcinolone acetonide ointment usp 0.1%
if you can get a doc to prescribe it, it works. and it has tons of other skin/rash type uses.....from diaper rash to excema.

well, if you have tried vagisal and it doesnt work. I would go to the docters and get it checked out. it good be an infection that needs to be treated with antibiotics or other medication. if it is worse after sex .. you may want to lay off the intercourse until it clears up might make it worse for you,Hope this helps.
