I've been dealing with severe itching around my penny line and the lips of my vagina for a while now. I've already been treated for infections like fungal and bacterial, and all my urine and swab tests came back clear, but the itching just won't go away. There's no sign of lesions, just some redness after I scratch. When I do itch, it feels like I've got tons of little cuts and burns until I put some oil or cold water on it. Any idea what's going on?

It sounds like you may be experiencing a condition called vulvar dermatitis, which can cause itching, redness, and irritation without visible lesions. Since infections have been ruled out, it could be due to an allergic reaction, skin sensitivity, or even friction. I recommend following up with a dermatologist or gynecologist for a more thorough examination and to explore treatment options such as soothing creams or anti-inflammatory medications.

Question

I've been taking Meprate, and I'm concerned about some side effects. Last month, I had really bad pain on the lower right side of my stomach, but it went away after my period was over. Could this be something serious or affect my uterus in some way? I'm a bit worried.

Question

I'm really worried because my periods have been irregular for the last two months. My usual date was supposed to be the 14th of this month, but today is the 29th, so I'm 15 days late. I've had sex twice, with the last time being in January. My periods used to be on time, and now I'm not sure what's going on. Could this be something I should be concerned about?
