the insufferable itch
Someone referred me to this comm for help, so here I am.
First of all, I had a yeast infection a month or so ago. It started off with the odor and crusty discharge in my underwear, then after a while of ignoring it, came the horrible itching. So I used Monostat for a while, drank lots of cranberry juice, and the odor and discharge eventually stopped, but since then the itching has only gotten WORSE. It's completely unbearable. I have little bumps here and there on the outside of my vagina (pardon my lack of adequate terminology) where the pubic hair grows, and I'm not entirely sure if they're genital warts; they just feel like ordinary pimples. And I know I can't have an STD because my last sex partner was back in the summer, and he had no STIs/STDs.
Secondly, I recently made some changes to my health insurance, so I can't schedule to see a gynecologist until my new cards come in.
Is there any possible way to relieve the itching until then? I've tried Vagisil, Cortisone, and Itch-X and none of them seem to help any.
