    Has anybody else gone through this?

    I ve been mildly sore & itchy for the last 2 months, I ve been to my doctor 3 times The 1st time she gave me a diflican pill but it didn't help. 2nd time I went to the doctor she said I could try to use canestan but I got my period the next day. Went back to doctor on Monday and she said it didn't look like a yeast infection and maybe it was due to irritation. I have been tested for every STD and yeast and BV and they are always negative. This has happened before to me years ago and never found a reason, but I remember it took along time to resolve itself and I don't want to go through this again.


    Does anybody have any ideas what this could be?

    I use a hypo allergenic soap
    I wear cotton underware
    Take acidopoluis
    Use baby detergent
    I also notice it starts right after my period
    I use tampons and pads.

    I stopped using tampons for a while and changed pad brands , thinking that was it but no.... ugh


    Please help. Thanks in advance,

    Try using organic cotton tampons and pads, you could be sensitive to the synthetic materials of the regular kind, no matter what the brand. I know a few people who had similar symptoms and the organic ones seemed to stop it. Hope this helps!

      Looking for Help, Too

      I am going through this too. Everything you experience is what I am feeling. For months and months I've had a burning, sorness, doctors, creams, pills, tests that come back negative. I've tried everything you've tried and still no relief.

      I'm sorry I don't have answers for you, just wanted you to know that you're not alone.

      Praying for relief and strength to get through this.
