I have been having problems down there ever since my last UTI which was the end of January. I went and got tested for all STDs, all came back negative. There is no possibility that this is herpes either. For the past few weeks it has been burning to urinate (from the urethra itself) and burning around the vaginal opening. I went to the doctor's last week who said everything looked normal but once looking inside me said I had discharge that resembled a yeast infection so I treated for that (7 day treatment). The burning with urination has gone, and the burning around the vaginal opening has decreased quite a bit, but it is still there. It used to be that it would burn for up to an hour after I urinated, and now it is only a few minutes, and less severe burning. I did have my period while treating the yeast infection, and I used tampons so the cream would be effective which seemed to irritate the hole. I'm hoping this is nothing but it is so extremely irritating to have this going on for so long and not know what it is. It is relieving that this is not STD-related (I have been tested 2 times for everything, including another UTI, but still nothing). I have been doing a lot of read-up on vulvovaginitis and vulvodynia which is just constant pain down there but it's really not that painful, just sometimes mild burning, more annoying than painful.
Has anyone had anything similar to this? It's so frustrating to not have the right answers even going to the doctor. Does anyone know what this could possibly be?
