I have a Serious condition> Please help Ladies?
Answer:
Well first off, make sure you wipe extremely well when you are done using the restroom. Even though it may seem like wasteing, make sure you change you're pad/tampon/panty liner each time you use the restroom. Go buy some feminine wipes that you can keep in you're purse or pocket. Try Summer's eve. Make sure you shower on a daily basis making sure to wash your vaginal area. Avoid using glycerine or bar sopes and body wash. Try Summer's Eve gental cleansing wash for your vaginal area. After you get out of the shower make sure to dry that area well. Then apply a vaginal moisterizer. Try Vagisil. This will help protect against odor and irratation. Make sure you wear clean, breathable underwear every day. Cotton is best. Avoid thongs and g-strings. The types of underwear can carry extremely hazardous bacteria from the anus to the vagina which can result in illness. Lastly you should probably get checked for any STD's. The discharge you may be experiencing could be caused by Gonnorhea or Syphillis. Good Luck Hope this helped!!
try tea tree oil
dont wash down there with soap stay away from that, drink alot of organic cranberry juice it really works
Tea tree oil works really well.
Add NO MORE THAN 8 DROPS to a bath of warm water and soak for 10-15mins, no more than twice a week.

trying washing yourself after u use the bathroom, use a moist tissue and wipe yourself, most case of itch is due to the urine drying on your skin, also you can try applying powder on yourself, a good powder would be johnson or gold bond, the one thats for itching, wear a clean underwear everyday also and clean lower body clothes..
maybe it's just your hair that's pricky on your skin and (possibly) causing you to itch?
besides, your doc and gyno don't see anything
did your doc validate your infection b4 she gave you those tablets? if she didn't, maybe you never had one
if she did, well, maybe you can think of anything you did b4 it started itching that might've caused it to prevent it in the future
and maybe "whites" turning "yellow" is not a direct sign of infection
okay, hoped this helped a little...
What do you mean when you say,..."my whites
started to turn yellow..."?? Do you mean the whites of your eyes?? If so, go to another Doctor and another,until someone mentions the word 'jaundice', and checks your liver function! Yellow sclera,(the white area in your eye, around the colored iris) is ALWAYS indicative of jaundice.I can't believe any Doctor would see that and not follow up with at least a blood test to check what your liver function is doing!
As far as the vaginal itching,...I'm hoping your Doc asked all the usual questions,...any new soaps, laundry detergent, clothing, etc. Also,
NEVER USE THOSE ROTTEN SPRAYS THEY ADVERTISE, that are supposed to 'erase' vaginal odor. If you are infection free, you should NEVER have any foul odor, unless you don't bathe regularly. Normal vaginal discharge is odorless, unless it is not washed away, or your underwear isn't changed daily. If the itch is still there, after treatment, either the treatment was ineffective, or wasn't done properly, or long enough. Some yeast infections are very stubborn. You must follow the Doctor's orders very carefully, even if it is 'messy' and annoying.
If the 'whites' you are speaking of, is your underwear, that would be the discharge from the infection. Keep calling the Doctor, and telling her you still have the same problem. In most of life, especially with medical people, the "squeaky wheel gets the grease"...in other words, she'll have to solve your problem, if she doesn't want to hear from you every day!
If she refuses your call, report her to your Insurance Co.especially if it's an HMO. They pay Docs to keep costs down, as well as visits, but, if you aren't being completely healed, then she has to treat you until you are,...or refer you to someone that has greater knowledge about your particular problem.BUT, make sure you are following all the directions 100%!! Otherwise, you are looking at an infection that will never stop, and most probably will worsen due to insufficient treatment. When bacteria are treated, and start to subside, and symptoms begin to abate, lots of people stop taking the medication, or stop using the 'messy' inserts, and then the bacteria go wild! And, the result is a worse infection that you started with in the first place! I'm not trying to scare you, but typically, patient compliance is poor in lots of cases. Take the medication, use the inserts, as often as the Doc said, until ALL the medicine is gone! If you still have trouble, complain, not nicely...but like someone that is doing what they were told to do, but is not getting the correct results!
Good luck---Feel better!
Sound like you initially had bacterial vaginosis or trich for which you were given antibiotics. The antibiotics caused a yeast infection that you treated with a vaginal insert.
Now it sounds like you are having an allergic reaction to something. Possibly the soap you are using or your laundry detergent. Or latex condoms? DO NOT take the advice posted to use powders or creams. They will probably just make things worse. I would use nothing but a hypoallergenic soap like cetaphil or dove unscented. Give your poor vagina a rest for a few days and I bet everything should go back to normal.
