What the hell is this??

So, if someone would ask me "are you allergic to anything" I'd say pure orange. The reason for this?

Well.. when I was a little girl, I had pure orange juice a maximum of 20 times before I completely cut it out due to the consequences!

After drinking or eating orange I would get a horrible stinging pain inside my vagina.. it wasn't as though it was stinging or burning when I urinated.. it was simply just irritation inside..

What could this be due to? I tried orange juice again 2 years ago and again last week with exact same occurrence.. I have no idea what the reason could be or how it even logically can happen? Any ideas?

    Sorry to hear this. I've heard of women itching/burning in their vaginal area due to soy and dairy allergies so I suppose it's possible another food allergy could cause the same thing. If you avoid orange juice, are you perfectly fine? If so, I would continue to avoid orange juice. It's extremely acidic so I know if definitely is a bladder irritant.

      Yes as long as I don't have lemon juice or orange, it sucks because sometimes I just fancy a nice glass of cold orange juice
