A member asked:
Is soaking in a bath with aveeno colloidal oatmeal safe for the vagina? i have irritation from menopause and i want to try to soothe it. is there anything otc i can use to put just inside the opening safely? it feels sore and burns, no std/hpv?

No, the soaking is not the solution. These changes are due to gradual loss of estrogen that comes with menopause which results in dramatic changes in the appearance of vulva and vagina. With age, skin of vulva becomes thin, loses elasticity, and moisture so that the patient starts feeling burning and itchy sensation. Talk to your doctor about to treat. OTC use silicon based vaginal moisturizer.
