painful rash afer period

[klyn]

During my period, I use maxi pads (of course) but around the 3rd or 4th day I start to get irritated in my inner buttocks area. The rash starts below my vagina but in my very inner thigh area and goes all the way back by inner buttocks area. This happened last month too after my period but the irritation went away on it's own. This month after my period the rash is still lingering..it seems like the maxi pads are irritating me. So I tried some over the counter hydro-cortizone cream and it didn't seem as sore but when I looked down there,,,the area was scaly and disgusting looking,it looked like the area was trying to heal so scabs were forming. I had my yearly pap exam earlier this month and my dr called me and said that I have a yeast infection. My question is could the maxi pads be making me irritated in my butt area? Or could the yeast infection spread and infect this area also?

Every time i am on my period i get a rash, and it lingers for a while, by the time it is finally gone i start my period again! It peels too. Is this normal?

I want to switch to tampons. will that cause a rash inside my body? i dont know if i just have sensitive skin, or im allergic. what do i do?

i just got the rash to and i got it last time i was on my period but this time i am going to be done with my period,  and i put aloe on my rash , but it does not help.  i let the rash  go away on it own, but how did you know  what pad is the right pad for you when you try them all?  and do i talk to my doctor or just the rash go away on it own.

I have a latex allergy and I get the same rash with peeling when I use regular pads that aren't hypoallergenic. I hope this helps some of you. Try searching amazon for hypoallergenic pads because that's where I buy mine.
