Itching. Atrophy?
Posted , 8 users are following.
Hi ladies! I am actually only 22 so im not in menopause, but have some problems going on that lead me to believe my estrogen levels might be off, and I dont know where else to find people who can answer my questions.. This is a lot of TMI so i apologize in advance... I have been on depo provera birthcontrol for over 5 years. About a year ago I experienced my first ever issue with my vagina. I was afraid thinking that my partner cheated on me and gave me something. I was itchy and had a tear in my vaginal skin.. turned out to be nothing and was instructed to use lubricant during sex.. So I have been using this ever since but it is not uncommon for sex to be a little painful and to have spotting after.. I also have itching and irritation that comes and goes, no STDs as I have been tested 3 times this year.. I also have noticed that somedays I feel like I have to pee every hour, but sometimes its normal. it also seems like I have to try extra hard to empty my bladder fully... Another thing I have noticed is that im getting this white clumpy stuff coming out of my pores around the clitoral area. I thinks its normal secreations that are drying and then clumping up? I dont think I had this before but cant find anything about it online, ill attach a picture of what it looks like.... One time the itching got really bad so I went in to the doctor and it ended up being yeast and BV, i did the treatment and it helped a lot but not enough. still itchy. I have gone back twice since then and dont have either infection anymore.... I have made a lot of life style changes which do help quite a bit. I dont wear anything restricting, dont ride my bike anymore, cotton only underwear, toilet paper and laundry soap for sensitive skin, and I use yeast infection cream for a night when the itching gets bad which seems fend it off for about a week... the doctors are no help, they tell me everything looks normal, swab me and then send me on my way.. it takes 3 weeks to get back in but its exhausting to keep going... what do you guys think. To those who are experiencing atrophy, does it seem similar?

Try wearing panties made out of cotton especially in the groin area . If I wear others it causes irritation even discharge without itching .
Try pouring vinegar mixed with very little if any water over the area it helps to clear things but if it is irritated dilute or it will Burn.
Use a lubricant that is water based made just for the area .
Eat yogurt

You might already be doing this but don't wash the area. You might be removing the flora there
