Can my mirena iud cause vaginitis? i've had itching and burning not sexually active
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Vaginitis: If you are not sexually active, the IUD by itself does not usually cause non specific vaginitis. For the discharge and itching you can douch with water baths and apply mycology ointment/ cream twice a day until symptoms resolve. If it persists, make an appt with GYN MD virtually online.
