looking for solution to itch

[Guest guest]

Hi- I'm new to this group. There are so many messages here and I'm

trying to find an answer to my question. I have had vulvar itch for

over a year now. It seems to just come and go. I've been treated

many times for yeast and bacterial infections, but I don't have any

since nothing is working. I went off my low-estrogen birth control

pill because I heard low estrogen can cause this and that didn't help

either. I've also heard that this has to do with a vitamin D deficiency.

If anyone has any answers, suggestions, etc., I would GREATLY

appreciate it! Thanks.

Hi there,

I think you should see a Dermatologist soonest - itching can be a sign

of a skin condition, I am thinking of Lichen Sclerosus, but there are

other things it could potentially be as well. You should probably stop

self-medicating: if it was me, I would have a test for candida and if

there is no candida, I would not treat for thrush. Topical

anti-fungals can make matters much worse.

Good luck,

Kay
