vaginapaginaWhat is it?!
Okay, here's my jumbled around explanation, I sure hope someone can help me.
About a month or so ago, my bf and I used KY Warming Liquid. Bad experience. Basically, it burned the heck out of both of us. It gave my boyfriend cuts that continue to reopen everytime we have sex (he's now taking amoxicillan).
When we used it, it irritated me, I got a yeast infection soon after. Don't know if that was related or not. It cleared up. Sex again (w/o that stuff), felt like the beginning of the same thing. It went away when my period started, thankfully. I'm not sure if it's because I was raw and my bf was too.
Now. That was the beginning of October that I had my period. We haven't had sex that much since then -- it's not that comfortable. But when we do -- well, the cuts totally open up on him, and me ... it gets ouchy. This is more noticeable, though. It hurts, it kinda burns (not like UTI though), and it kinda itches. And, I have these bumps ... kinda hard to explain where they are. But they're like, below, to the left, of my vaginal lips. I've had them once before, last year -- it made sex painful, I went to the doc, had a something infection and got some amoxicillan. They're like small, itchy bumps.
The thing is ... sex didn't really hurt the other night (Monday?) ... I don't know if this is from (later) fingernail scratches since it seemed to get worse after manual play, or if it's because my boyfriend is still really raw, or WHAT it is. But it's uncomfortable, and itchy, and I don't know what it might be or what might be good to take to help it. Is there anything that helps heal the vagina fast? I don't even know what I'd TELL my doctor. So I'm eating yogurt and drinking water and stuff (and cranberry when I can get my hands on it), but I don't know. All I do know is KY Warming Liquid is AWFUL.
And if anyone has ANY advice/suggestions, please share. Oh, and also -- my one doctor had said that, if my yeast infection didn't respond well to Diflucan (before), there was a good cream to try that she used a lot. It wasn't Monistat -- can someone think of what else it might be? Also, would that hurt me as badly as Vagisil did?! It doesn't itch INSIDE ... but it HURTS too.
Sorry this is so jumbled!
