alright so this morning i woke up, and it just feels really uncomfortable and itchy...down there. i took a shower last night and used a new body wash, could it be irritation from that? is there anything i can use to ease the discomfort and itchiness? could i possibly put a little of my son's a&d down there?  any suggestions appreciated ladies!

okay it's been a couple of days. i haven't used the new body wash and i've been putting a very very thin layer of a&d down there. but ti's not getting any better. and now, there's even more discomfort, it's itchier, and now it's a little swollen and red. idk what's going on?! urgent care is closed now and the clinic isn't open til monday. is there anything i can do til then?

A & D will definately help. I can only use a certain kind of soap down there and I ran out yesterday, so I have to use regular soap and it gets so itchy. I put a&d on it and it helps.

Did you shave yesturday? If not do you usually but havent in a while? Does it hurt to pee? I wouldnt put anything down there that isnt specifically for down there... by down there do you mean the skin around your groin or your actual vagina itself?

It could be from the new soap, but it could also be from a yeast infection.  Is there any discharge?  Odor?

New soap could cause irritation... I'd shower again but not use any soap and rinse everything really well then use some A&D but wear a panty liner.

Feel better.

I would say the A & D should help a lot.  It sounds like an irritation from the new soap.  Don't use it  again and see if it feels better.  If not sounds like an infection, either bacterial or yeast.

i'm thinking it's just irritation. i have down there every other day and i've never had this problem. and there's no discharge (well, other than normal) and no odor, so it's not yeast infection. i'll try a&d and see if that helps. and tonight when i shower i won't use that new soap down there. thanks ladies!

I am highly sensitive and I can not use any kind of body wash or scented soaps around my vagina.   I would soak in the tub with some oatmeal.    Then I would rinse very well and use some kind of cream....a&d works fine.   Balmex is also really good.   If you notice any swelling, burning or itching then you should try some over the counter yeast infection medicine.
