Redness and mild rash

Thanks for your response! Yes all my symptoms were mostly external. My vagina and cervix looks and feels healthy. the redness was there before the medication but I have to admit that I have added hydrocortizone and canesten cream. i might have overdone it... the friction from my panties is really irritating but no other symptoms except redness remain.

We took off the condom a few weeks ago and did it many times... it affected my vaginal ecosystem because the PH test told me it was bacterial or parasite vaginitis. But BV was negative and the PH test is fine now. We are back with the condom while things settles with less frequent intercourse.

My partner also has foculitis in his groin and his doctor told him to put antifungus cream. I wonder if we keep giving each other yeast infection. It started for both of us when we started sleeping together.

I was also treated ealier this summer with hemorroids that were quite persistent. I have inheritated an anal tag that keeps being irritated. To keep the place clean I started using baby wipes but I've stopped now.

It's also a particularly hot summer here and I use my bike a lot.

Writing about it, I realize it's a perfect storm for irritation. I'll keep you all posted for my cure... I'll wait 5 days to contact the doctor again if it's still red once I cleared for the std test. At the meantime, I'll apply Aloes gel and nothing else. Keep the advice coming if you feel like it!

i'm adding a picture in broad daylight so you can see the redness. The rash/bumps are already mostly gone. I haven't shaved in weeks.

Yes it is a perfect storm in many ways yes and no. I do think between you and your partner something is not compatible as it seems. Normally with a new partner you might get a yeast infection or some slight irritation as your two PH balances are different. However when it start to become reoccurring is when you should look into it more deeply. Just remember the vagina is like an open women you always want to make sure what ever you put in is clean. You can try and wear more loose fitting clothes and panties that are not as tight and cotton ones. At home none if you can, i normally do when its evening time and i am getting ready for bed. Hemorroids can be so bothersome but i have found that if i can keep hydrated and eat more fiber i am normally ok. Its when i dont when i can tell its going to be a rough couple of days. Baby wipes help a lot and or hazelwitch.

I had two medical opinion this week end. One doctor told me to do nothing and that I am probably irritated. Another one made a culture test and no candidosa was found in my vagina. He still thinks there are some remaining in my vulva. He prescribed me hydrocortisone and canesten.

I'm torn between putting more cream or less cream. Nothing has gotten better... the more I rub, the more it gets irritated. Nothing hurts when I touch but my panties rubbing is intolerable.

I feel so depressed.

Has anything changed? Is the cream finally working? Any issue can be intolerable especially when its in a sensitive area. Im hopeful for good news for you.

Hi, sorry for the late reply but looking into your symptoms and from the doctor has said leads me think of lichen planus vulvar. I encourage you too look into it. I feel like you have you several symptoms from it. Is the itchiness on your vulva near year lips? thats where i see the redness and looks tender. Its probably where your underwear is causing the most discomfort ?? Try not to wear anything tight, wear loose clothing.

Hi, thank you all for following up. After horrible exams by male doctors, I've finally met an understanding woman doctor who listened to my story. She gave me antibiotics to try for a skin bacteria but she said it does not look like yeast. She thought it looked inflamed like contact dermatitis.

Thinking about it, I realize that I bought a different shampoo 3 months ago because my regular was out of stock. I looked up the ingredient and there is geraniol and linalool that are known to cause allergies. I wash my hair every two days so the product falls both between my buttcheeks and vulva. It makes totally sense that I'm burned where it falls. the hemorrhoids started 3 months ago and the itchiness in my vulva slowly got worst. It's too bad I had a new partner exactly at the same time, I thought it was him...

I might have been treated for hemorrhoids and yeast but it wasn't it. I've put so much antifungus on my irritated skin... The last time I've used the shampoo was 3 days ago. Contact dermatitis might take 3 weeks to heal so I'm staying patient but I'm being hopeful! I keep you posted.

hello can either one of you guys help me out on my page i posted what my vagina looked like and it was small red marks ive been tested and i came out clean the red marks only stayed for two days then went away there was no itching or burning i wish doctors actually knew what they were doing instead of getting a paycheck and going home this real life and real people )):
