no bumps- no irritation when peeing- all std negative- no unusual or smelly discharge-- just itching. Some days worse than others but nothing too severe but definitely itches. The first time this happened to me was in feb 2019, then it went away and never happened again until Dec 2020 but only this rime it hasnt gone away. i am currently still dealing with this. Back in feb 2019 , my doctor dismissed it and prescribed me fungal cream (i forgot the name) but i never used it because it went away. I am now 8 month preg and told my doctor and she dod nothing and dismissed me as well. i really wish i knew what this was.imageimage i provided a photo with flash and one without

    Hi Guest,

    Yes, I think it does look like LS. What are you putting on it? I had some white areas near the perineum but after a month on clobetasol, they went 90% away. These doctors are really something. I have seen several and only 1 properly diagnosed me. You may have to keep searching for a real "doctor." In the meantime, olive or coconut oil helps a good bit. Best of luck.

      Just vaseline and it seems to soothe it. It went away and has felt fine for a week now, how often did yours occur?

      Thank you for your reply

      I still have the pain but no white spots. Going back this week for check up. Glad yours feels better. Better is always good!
