Vaginal dermatitis or not?
I have a vaginal infection. I have had this problem for approx 20 years. A nurse diagnosed me about 11 years ago and prescribed a topical .05% cream i put on it. I never had to apply the cream twice. It always worked the first time.
the symptoms are: severe itching. My labia cracks open and my mucous membrane is raw. I have to get in the shower to urinate.
The stinging is unbearable.
It is not dermatitis. it is not lichen, it is not anything normally listed under female gynological problems. I lost the cream in a move. I have tried to get my records from my insurance who I no longer have, and they have been archived.
Can someone help me? it is ruining my life. it seems to me that the topical ointment was a steroid of somekind. I found it once on a Rx company website. its nothing normally prescribed for any female problems. Trust me I have tried the ALL.
The nurse wsa the only person that ever helped me with this. She took one look and told me what it was and prescribed the cream. I was so happy I cried. Now, I am back to square one.
Help please, if someone knows what I have let me know. Also from what I remember, it's something I would have to live with for the rest of my life, but it was controlled by the cream she gave me. She told me when I had a slight problem, put it on. or if I felt it coming on with the itching, use the cream. She was right on.

Not sure if you all are talking about vaginal dermititis or not but I'm actually 13 wks pregnant and went for my first ob appt last week. I hnever pay much attention to things unless they get really bothersome but my doctor informed me that I have this condition. She said I've probably had it for a while and it's funny because when I was pregnant with my first child I was diagnosed with many yeast infections and she told me that is was probably misdiagnosed and was actually vaginal dermititis. She informed that is can flare up from anything to changing bath soap to using a new laundry detergent but prescribed me with a .05% cream clobetasol propionate and although I've only used it for a couple days I've noticed a major difference already. Not sure if this will help any of you all but it was worth a try.
I have the same problem as the first girl and I'm 15. I don't know what Its called but it swells and gets really sensitive for no reason. For days the swelling doesn't stop and I'm creeped out to tell my mom to go the gy-no. I wash regularly and I'm a virgin. Please help
Im coming back as a dismissive male G.P. with no bedside manner that specializes in mens health! Thank you to all the wonderful women that have shared their most intimate stories on this site.I have suffered from this painful condition since my late teens. I am now in my late forties.I have been accused of anything from sticking odd and varied objects up my vagina to being just plain psychotic.I have under gone many tests,unnecessary surgeries(one life threatening) and countless embarrassing doctors and specialists appointments. All to be told that this was a life long condition and to just live with it.********! I come from a medical background and have always had the utmost faith in western medicine so it took me a very long time to embrace the natural medicine side of things. After the loss of two marriages,many jobs due to taking too many sick days and an attempted suicide,I finally decided to contact a natureopath.Joy of joys! After acupuncture and some herbal tonics and topical treatments I am on my way to recovery.I urge anyone with this life debilitating condition to look outside the square. You just might find that veil of despair lifting and believe me,the sun is shining on the other side.Good luck my brave comrades.
I have had problems with vaginal itching for years and my dr prescribed nystatin/triamcinolone/acetonide cream. I have also been prescribed Desonide which helped but the nystatin combo cream is better. I also take baking soda baths and these have given me some relief as well as taking antihistmines to help control the itching. At my last appt my dr suggested a biopsy to check for skin disease if the itching kept coming back so I think this is my next step. I'm making an appt with a gyno this week and I have an appt with a dermatologist next week. I hope info this helps!!
