Avatar n tn This my 3rd child and my 1st time having very itchy irritating skin on the vulva. Constantly have to shave and try to keep dry.
Avatar f tn You should try using bikini zone medicated after shave creme/gel. It soothes and prevents the redness. U also may be dry and need to use some sensitive skin and unscented lotion (but not in vulva, just outer area). I use a men's Mach 3 razor and it works better than any female razor I've ever used.

1574556 tn?1295968324 I'm thinking it's a natural response from the swelling of vulva and vaginal tissues that can occur because of hormone fluctuations. Around the time I ovulate each month I get an itchy vulva too, and my vagina feels sensitive, almost burning. Since I've had it for so very long and I don't have any infections, I talked to my dr. about it. She told me that is was probably just the way my tissues reacted to my hormones.
Avatar n tn I'll try and make this as specific as possible. I had my first ever yeast infection November 2017 right after my period. It was itchy as all hell and when I looked inside it was completely white like I've never seen before. I talked to a few friends and they all said take a Monistat and it'll be gone in a week. WRONG. The monistat (1-day) burned my vulva! I was on fire and swollen and when I saw everyone else had those side effects I went to urgent care and got a diflucan.
Avatar m tn I have been to my obgyn four times and I have been tested for every STD, bacterial infection, and yeast infections. They were are negative. But I still have this constant itch on the outside of vagina. I use all sensitive skin products. I don't have a foul oder or discharge, but it won't stop itching. Please help me. Im becoming depressed from it. This has been occurring for five months. Do i need to see a dermatologist? Can you tell me what may be wrong?
Avatar f tn Could be sensitive skin, could be damage to the skin from yeast, it could be the yeast still going on or it even could be the beginnings of a recurrence of genital herpes. If it lasts longer than a few days, follow up on it.
Avatar f tn First off, since you live in NY, that's stagetory rape (the legal age of consent in NY is 17). Don't tell anyone that your boyfriend is 18 and you're 16. As to your question, your pain is completely normal. Since you're a virgin, your hymen is in tact. It's a thin layer of skin that protects your vagina. When you have sex the first time, it is broken when the penis goes in...and that causes a bit of pain. Sometimes the hymen is so sensitive that even fingering can cause pain.
Avatar n tn Everytime i get out of the shower, its like peeling, but not alot, enough to cause discomfort though. It just feels like dry skin, but when i mess with it, it burns more. I shave everything down there, so i thought maybe it was just razorburn. Ive further scared myself into it being something else from looking on the internet. Someone please tell me whats going on!
Avatar f tn usually i am not allergic to anything like latex or rubber or even plastics and my skin is very tough. however, this toy was one of the jelly rubber kind which I've never used before. Anyway, the day after i used it i was a bit itchy and sensitive down around my vulva but that just sometimes happens if i chafe a bit so it wasn't anything unusual. then i used the toy again and everything got WAY worse. now my vulva is red, puffy, itchy, and swollen. I'm not sure what to do.
Avatar f tn Hey! I have always had sensitive skin and been prone to ingrown hairs and cysts. This year, after returning to the US after a year in Europe, I have had so many skin issues that I feel I've reached my wit's end and need some answers. It started out with what I thought were ingrown hairs appearing around my anus and bum. Two of these (I had four total over a period of two months) turned into two inch in diameter boils.
Avatar f tn To second AnnieBrooke's opinion, make sure you're not using scented ANYTHING in the way of feminine hygiene products. Cotton panties are pretty good as-is for aborbancy, breathability, and the ability to wash... er, sort of. I have tried using a small paste of baking soda, and / or borax to remove stains, but I haven't really found anything that worked that great on my underwear, nor on my husband's white tee's with the ubiquitous armpit yellows.
Avatar f tn s just on the outside of your vulva (the hairy part), that should not affect anything. If you are using it on the inside of your vulva (the pink, shiny part) and inside your vagina (the tube that goes between your external genetalia and your cervix), that's probably part of the reason. The vagina is self cleaning and you should not ever wash it out with anything. You only need to rinse the shiny pink part with water and use mild soap on the hairy bits. Cotton undies, only.
Avatar f tn I got waxed two weeks ago for the first time (i have pretty sensitive skin), and had oral and genital skin to skin contact, no penetration, the next day. I went for a touch up wax the following week, and the lady did a rushed job, but i didn't really think anything of it.
Avatar n tn For about a week or so, I have had a horrible itching sensation inside of my vagina. It's to the point that if I don't itch it I'm in tears it's so irritated, however, it is very sensitive from being scratched. I can't seem to find any help online, most answers are for external like of a vulva/skin parts...mine is only internal, nothing else itches. I have no discharge, no odor. I'm 27, so not post-menopausal....hopefully you have an answer...
Avatar n tn It seems to worsen when I am under the covers (warmer), sitting, or wearing tighter clothing. My skin is now sensitive to the elastic of my underwear. It is also uncomfortable for me to sit for long periods of time and for awhile I felt a slight soreness in my left leg just under my buttocks. The tingling is not as often but when it does occur, it is usually after I have been sitting.
Avatar f tn s body), it is coming from the skin of the vulva and the skin behind and around the labia minora. I feel like my pH balance is completely unbalanced from using soap and it stripped my vagina of its good bacteria because it's also dry. I have done everything from spending lots of time cleaning things up down there but nothing seems to work. Bathing in Epsom salt, bathing in apple cider vinegar and baking soda, etc.
Avatar f tn Does anyone no what to do about sensitive skin. My face is extremely sensitive right now and it hurts just to pull on it a little. Does this last long ? Or what can i do about it.
Avatar f tn My skin peeled like a sunburn about a week later. I never turned red. My skin became sensitive and whelped in the bend of my elbows and under my arms. Now it just hurts and itches. What is the problem? I now use an umbrella when I am in the sun, but the sensitivity has remained.
4936507 tn?1365361667 Hi everyone. I have what I have chalked up to be just extremely sensitive skin, but only in certain areas. It started a couple of years ago when moisturizers I was using around my eyes and eyelids suddenly started causing a weird rash just under my eyebrows. It feels like it has been scratched and it itches and burns like crazy if I put anything on it. I started trying all different kinds of all natural, hypoallergenic, organic, etc types of moisturizers, all with the same affect.
Avatar f tn Normally I don't have that bad of sensitive skin, but since the past few weeks I have noticed that when I take a shower and use my loofa sponge and coco butter body wash (which I have used for about a year now) I break out with a rash on my stomach. Also I took a bath tonight, just plain water, not hot of course and noticed that I broke out with a rash on my stomach AND my chest. What is going on? Is this normal?
