Okay probably about a week or so ago, i started to become itchy and red in my areas "down there". So i itched like anyone cuz it hurt so bad. Eventually i decided it was probably a yeast infection. So i bought some medicine and used it three nights in a row. Afterward a lot of the itching has stopped and i thought a little bleeding was normal since i damaged a little bit of the tissue down there from the itching. It has been about 3 days since i last itched and for some reason I am still somewhat bleeding when and when i dont urinate and i have slight preassure on my bladder/ adomin. Wondering what is going on in my body and what i could do to help it. Thanks!

You better make an appointment with your gynecologist, it could be some other kind of an infection like Bacterial Vaginosis.

BV also causes itching but it also causes excessive discharge and bad smell. BV is treated by different antibiotics and is actually an imbalance between good and bad bacteria inside of vagina.
