Im posting for my girlfriend. Shes a Virgin so it isnt an STD. She just wrote this so I figured Id copy and paste and alter it a little more to make it more descriptive. My vagina is very swollen and burns and I get pricks of stabbing pain/itchiness. It started off as just mild irritation after my period. I am having black/Dark brown discharge after period, like left over blood from my period and It wont stop. Its been days now and my vagina is very swollen and burns so much when i clean it and even when im just sitting around..its driving me crazy that every time i clean i always see the brown/black discharge. It doesn't have any abnormal odor, its just my inner vaginal lips when i look in the mirror are very swollen, as well as the lips near the opening. I am trying vagisil and it takes a while to make it stop burning if it even does stop the burning at all, and between that time and when i am cleaning it i am having a imense discomfort and burning pain bringing me to tears because it stings so much. Is there anything i can do? Or do you know what this may be? A Yeast infection?(usually smells and I heavent heard about dark brown discharge). Or some kind of infection or rash etc. I cant go to the gyno because i dont have health coverage and no extra money. Please Help! Please write back ASAP
I am having the same symptoms. The exact same! Its painful all day and even worse when I try to clean or go to the bathroom. The discharge is completely abnormal and very dark. Mine is very thick and I'm worried that the infection could spread or have even worse effects if I don't see a doctor.
I'm also a virgin and am not on any birth control, so I know its not due to an STD or any birthcontrol side affects. This has never happened before so it isn't due to my period either.
Did it go away? What happened? Did you end up seeing a doctor?
got a few answers for you though.
taking a warm bath helps! a lot
and you may have something called vulvodynia
creams wont work.
it probably is best to go to the gyno, but they probably wont have an answer for you...i doubt its a yeast infection.
sometimes its possible after oral sex or something else that the vagina may be irritated or sore after a lot of stimulation.
idk if this helps i hope it does, but don't worry your not alone im still struggling to figure out how the hell to get mine gone. =/
I was diagnosed with bacterial vaginosis and completed treatment of metronidazole 5 days ago. I did STD screening as well as blood tests for HIV but all results were negative. My symptoms went away but now (after having sex using a condom 2 days ago) I have very severe vaginal swelling, burning, and what appears to be a rash. I noticed I was bleeding quite heavily after intercourse (but not during) and did not feel any pain. I have light vaginal bleeding now and it appears to contain bits of skin tissue. I've done urinalysis tests for UTIs, pregnancy test, STD swab, and blood test for HIV and Syph..all were negative! What could this be?
I have the same problem, my gyno had no answers for me...
It seems to get worse after sex... It even hurts for me during sex... It usually takes a week before I start feeling better then I try to have sex again and it happens again I am so irritated I love my fiancee so much I am so happy he is so understanding but we need answers so we can get back to our normal sexual lives...
I have this exact same issue. what is this?? Extremely weird! Help! this hurts!
you may be allergic to latex
