Hi everyone, i am a 24 year old woman. About 3 weeks ago i got my mirena iud removed after almost 5 years along with a pap smear . Results came back that i was positive for hpv and had bacterial vaginosis . Gave me some anti biotics and i was fine for a week, bv was gone . But i was still itching . Just got a leep procedure done two weeks ago and i am now healing from that , but still itchy .Went to the emergency room thinking my bv came back and it didnt. So they said it could be because my hormone levels are off from getting the mirena removed and thats the reason why im itchy. Did a follow up with my dr and said that could be the reason too. She gave me birth control pills and said give it at LEAST a month for the itch to subside Where im trying to get at Is has anyone else had this problem or heard of that before ? Could getting my birth control removed make me itch like this ?
Its not an itch that keeps me up at night, im not even red , i just have this itch all the time and its driving me crazy , any advice or birth control removal stories of your own would be great !!

omg, i had the mirena coil removed a year ago and have a similar issue, just on the left side, it gets worse when im washing or after ive been to the loo and using toilet paper, but the itch is always there it does come and go in intensity which my GP nurse said was hormonal. ive tried everything but nothing seems to make it go away and the drs just dont seem to care, but its driving me insane. i was on the coil for about 6 years, without having a period and all felt normal down there, its only since removal that this has started. we cant be the only two people to be suffering this? i dont have a cure for you im afraid but will keep you posted if i do find relief. good luck and you have my sympathy, at least we're not alone anymore.
