I have birth 13 weeks ago, and since about 6 weeks postpartum I've had an itch down there.
I self medicated for a couple of weeks with all the thrush treatments I could get my hands on, then went to the GUM clinic (twice!) and each time they have been flummoxed as I don't have any STDs, yeast infection or BV.
I've now been to the doctors and she's just given me a painkiller topical cream but that's just kind of masking the problem. She's told me to go back in two weeks.
I'm getting really worried now, can anyone advise? All that comes up online is nothing that I have or bloody vulvar cancer. I've been examined 3 times so surely someone would've flagged this if they were worried?
It's taking over now and making me really anxious. Sorry for the ramble.
