Suffering from vaginal yeast infection. does washing the genital area with dettol antiseptic help reduce the itching?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Vaginal yeast: Dont' do it -- could make things worse. If you're on anti-yeast treatment, you can use hydrocortisone cream to help with the itching. If you haven't seen a doctor to confirm the diagnosis, for sure don't use antiseptics -- and see a doctor or clinic soon. Good luck.

It's not really my abdomen, further in to my pelvis around my vagina. I had gone to my doctor about it a couple months ago and she said it was a yeast infection so we got that treated and it lasted for a little bit. Started itching and burning again.
I recently had a yeast infection about a month ago, and I don't know if I have another one. It really burns and itches in my vaginal area. I also experience a lot of pain during sexual intercourse. What do I have and how should I treat it?
Is it normal to have recurring vaginal yeast infections 24/7? im not sexually active but i have bumps and recurring yeast infections and it just itches alot. i tried meds but it didnt help. is there anything else i can do to help it?
I think I have a vaginal yeast infection for the second time within 3 months. But im not sure. Around my hole itches & it burns to urinate.
