      do you have any more of these cuts on your vagina ? how has your discharge been ? has the cut stayed open like sore or more like fissure before you scratched ?

      discharge has been normal, it was just like a fissure not a sore, not painful at all! to me it just seems like a small tear from either wiping too roughly or scratching too hard after i shave because after the first say or two i get thrush because my skins so sensitive from shaving

      i believe the thrush is giving you excess discharge coupled with your tendency to itch is causing the fissures. If you dont scratch the area after shaving you should be ok. try using a more sensitive razor, i use the intuition and it works great for me. Do is the itch come from the area pictured or the whole area in general ?

      the itch just comes from anywhere i shave! so all over, even my legs itch if i shave them!
