I've been having delayed periods, and my last one was on February 6th. I took a pregnancy test on March 19th, and it came back negative. My doctor suggested taking Cyclenorm E and P for two days, three times a day, which I started on March 20th. But its now March 24th, and I still havent gotten my period. There's just a little spotting. I'm kind of worried. What should I do about this?

I'm dealing with an intense itching sensation in the area between my vagina and anus, and it's been going on for about a month now. It's really hard to stop scratching and it's becoming quite uncomfortable. Could you guide me on what might be causing this or suggest what I should do?

Itching between the vagina and anus can have many causes, including: Skin conditions: Eczema, dermatitis, psoriasis, lichen sclerosus, and lichen simplex chronicus can all cause itching. Irritants: Sweat, tight clothing, soaps, perfumes, detergents, and razor burn can all irritate the skin. Allergies: An allergic reaction to something in your environment can cause itching. Sexually transmitted infections (STIs): Genital herpes, genital warts, HPV, syphilis, and gonorrhea can all cause itching. Pinworms: These parasitic worms can cause intense itching at night when females lay their eggs around the anus. Yeast infection: A yeast infection in the vagina or anus can cause itching. Fecal contamination: Contact with fecal material can cause itching. consult dermatologist
