Perimenopause irritation and burning

Has anyone else experienced this? I have some slight vaginal irritation and slight burning that has only started since this wonderful, fun-filled journey You ladies have helped me so much during this and anytime I have a flush of health anxiety (my worst symptom by far) reading posts from y'all are a life saver!!

I’m glad you mention this because I went to my doctor because I have some itching , burning in my vaginal area only on the outside 3 weeks into it. I though it was BV or Yeast but the first week I went to the store and I got anti fungal and one week past and went to the doctor and she didn’t do an exam I told her it was on the outside and no discharge so she gave me the one pill for yeast and probiotics and today I still itching so I went today she check me and said was dryness and she didn’t saw no discharge! So I went to the store and got some vaginal mosturiZer and see what happens it is annoying. She said is hormonal. I hope this help you and anyone and i love to know if more women going thru this. Hope we get better

I’m the same as you ! I have anxiety overdrive from this damn Meno crap ! I too have had slight irritation and burning going to the loo for the past 2 weeks ? Took a sample to be tested for a water infection, they said no but shows slight inflammation ??? Whatever that means ? But have spent all weekend worried about it . . . Someone on the Menopause site on Facebook said maybe it’s Vagianl Atrophy which has made me panic because I do t want that xx Deb xx

I get the exact same thing. It drives me crazy, but mine is a prickly itchy sensation. I just finished a super long bleed that lasted from Nov until a week ago, now I have this irritation to deal with..it seems our struggles never end. I'm considering trying maca supplements to see if it will balance me out

Yes I have ! I’m currently panicking over what it might be ? Have you had any slight tummy ache and dragging sensation with it ?

I saw your reply and it is exactly what I am dealing with now. Right after my period (which is now my ovulation week since my periods are so short), I have vaginal burning. I am going to try vitamin E suppositories to see if that help. Is your burning internal, external or both? It has to be hormonal as it isn't as bad other days of the month.

Hi klm1213
I have just started this symptom about 4 months ago. But I have along with it much more discharge than normal and I get swollen down there. Doctor says everything is fine 🤔 But how can that be. I soak in Espom salt and ever few days I do a salt water rinse. It does help alittle. Anyone else get the swollen labia and vulva thing? This also makes my anxiety sky high ??
