A member asked:

My vagina is itchy and irritated, why? i've hadf sexs on 2/18, and also douche the right after,

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Often : Often times when you douche you disrupt the natural flora of your vagina making you more prone to infection. It sounds like you are dealing with a yeast infection. You can try an over the counter yeast infection cream for 3 or 7 nights and if this does not work you should see a doctor for an evaluation.
