Redness from clob?

Posted , 2 users are following.

I have been using the clob ontiment 2 times a day for a week. I have been putting a very thin layer on the white spots on my labia majora after soaking for 20 minutes. I noticed that my labia minora is very red. Is this side effect? Could the clob be burning my skin?

    It burned mine so I started using emu oil, but it wasn't helping as much so I switched to castor oil and that's made all the difference!! I haven't used clob for a few weeks now. No more burning!! I'm pretty sure the clob was making me burn,

    I called my GYN this morning and she told me I might need to use less. She told me to use aquaphor for the weekend only and then use a tiny amount at night only. She is going to see me Thursday to see if I need to change to a different strength or if less is more. I'm trying to stay positive and be grateful I have a doctor who is so attentive. I used clob 8 years ago but used the cream without issue...maybe that is better for me?

      I had the same thing.   I was switched to triamcinolone ointment and what a relief!

      It's either that clob is too strong (Triam is the next strength down) or a reaction to ingredients.  Clob Ointments have Propylene Glycol in them while most  Triamcinolone Ointments don't.
