I'm dealing with a lot of vaginal itching and burning right now, and I'm using itch guard which only seems to help for a short while. Could you please tell me what might be causing this and if there's something more effective I could try?

I recommend using an antifungal cream like Clotrimazole (Canesten) twice a day for 1-2 weeks. Additionally, you can take oral antihistamines like Cetirizine (Zyrtec) once daily to help with the itching. Make sure to maintain good hygiene and avoid using scented products in the genital area. If the symptoms persist, please consult a gynecologist for further evaluation and management.

I'm supposed to get my period tomorrow, but it hasn't started yet. I'm feeling those usual period pains, but nothing's happening. Can you suggest some home remedies to help kickstart my period right away?
There is no reason to be concerned if your periods are due the next day. You should allow time for your normal menstrual cycle to take place. If your period is delayed by a more than 1 week, then you should visit the gynecologist for further evaluation.
