Please, does anyone know what this is?!
I'm only 16. I've just recently(like the past few months) noticed that my vagina(the outer lips/ the edges) looked like it got sun burnt and was peeling. i thought maybe I am not washing enough but I take good showers nearly twice a day. It really hurts.. I remember in the summer I really noticed it after I shaved my bikini line. But it burns now if like i put water on it.. it starts bleeding if the extra skin comes off..
I don't know what to do....
I was taking antibiotics for an upper respiratory infection (that i didn't have) now I'm going to be on mono meds for 6 days.....
I need to get the courage to ask my dad or doctor for help....>.< i wish i had a mom right now.
Please someone help.
I need some ways to stop the pain!

I have similar problem, it started about two weeks ago. About a month ago I was put on a weeks worth of antibiotics. I noticed some others had been taking them to, but since there was a gap between me finishing the meds and the rash appearing, I didn't connect the 2. Do you think they could be the cause?

Okay, actually it IS a yeast infection. I have the exact same thing. Iv had it twice recently. Go to the doctor, and tell them you have a yeast infection and ask for any kind of pill he can give you to get rid of it. It will get rid of it quick!!(: Hope this helped

Hi! I ended up with this same problem after taking doxycycline. I had ended up in the ER for right upper abdominal pain and the ER doctor tested me for STD's and went ahead and put me on antibiotics while waiting for the tests to come back. I've never had this problem before and combined with knowing that I was being tested for STD's I became convinced that this was part of what having one must be like. I went to an OB/GYN and she told me that my all my test results were negative and the itchy, scaly, irritated skin was caused by the antibiotics. She gave me a prescription for some stuff called Mycolog-II. It comes as a lotion or cream. She also prescribed a one time pill for yeast infections that can be caused by antibiotics. They fixed the problem completely.
Hope this helps someone!

Omg I'm so glad I selected this ! Im 19 and recently just encountered this problem ! Only difference is that mines feels dry and kinda almost sore like burn after itching and I thought that I just had cuts from shaving but looked and saw red sore areas where skin looks rubbed off. I've had an STD before.. Thanks to my lovely cheating Bf ! But had my treatment for. I've been tested twice since then and dr's have said nothing. I'm still worried that it may be an STD that never went away or maybe I'm just worrying to much... I am very paranoid and scary about these things ! But glad to know Im sharing some of the same symptoms

It has to be from antibiotics. I was recently on them for strep throat and this started about a week after I finished taking the pills. I was told when I was on them after having my wisdom teeth removed to eat a lot of yogurt or you might get a yeast infection as the antibiotics get rid of the good bacteria or whatever it is in the yogurt. I forgot about this and now a yeast infection sounds like its the most probable answer. Thank god I found this site!!!! I thought for sure it was an STD

I have the same thing, but iv had it for about past a month, im 17, im not sexually active or anything, im pretty sure its not an STD, im a buf germaphobe, and i dont share or do drugs. but its embarrasing for myself. It night i have to sleep with no underwear nad just sum basketball shorts, like 3 times my size to be comfterble. It jusrts and im the kind of girl that wears spandex shorts undermy clothes every day. clean pair everyday, but sometimes it hurts and when i wear my jeans if i dont wear them it just hurts more. I try to put some dry lotion on my inner thigh and it helps for the moment, but later its just the same. I dont know what to do i want to the doctors, but id cant go alone. or can I? its embbarasing to talk to ma parents becuase we really dont have a Good relationshipp? What can i do?

I have the same issues. Been going on for at least two months now. I think I might know what the problem is. I think it is the soap I use. It seems to clear up if I use a mild ph balanced soap, like Arbonne Body Wash or Baby soap. If I use bar soap, even Dial, it gets really bad. I think I am going to go out and buy some Feminine Hygiene soap tomorrow and see if that helps. Hope this is helpful to the rest of you ladies. No one should have to deal with this annoying and persistent problem!

Hi Girls, you reallllllly need to go to the doctors, you MUST. I had this problem from when I was 10 years old, i'm now 20. It started getting itchy and the skin peeling away and flaking, it then turned into raw skin and cuts from where i was itching at the skin flaking off. It took ages to get diagnosed as there was nothing coming up on swabs like thrush or anything... then a consultant dermatologist eventually diagnosed it as LICHEN SCLEROSIS. This can be treated with immune surpressant drugs and the correct ointments, but you must see a doctor I cannot tell you enough, i know it's embarassing but trust me if you leave it, it will get worse! Lichen sclerosis irritates the skin so much that the inner labia can start to stick together and fuse causing more cuts and pain when having sex. So go on girls head to the doctors, it just may well be LS! Sounds like it from most of you! PS remember the name of Lichen sclerosis and mention it to the doctor!

All these posts are old now, how did you all fair? This is my story...
I have had these symptoms for over 17 years and finally i'm getting tested by a dermatologist. the anti-fungal cream that they prescribe me initially doesn't work because it is toxic and worsens the skin irritation as ther is no fungal infection there. the doctors were not interested at all and told me to go away, literally. five years later i moved and saw a new doctor who perscribed me steroid cream. but i have now been told that it could cause cancer and i shouldn't have ever used it down there. what did they want me to do? go insane & scratch my self into a bloodied mess? any how, im waiting to have a bi-opsy and bloods done after 17 years of suffering. The only time it ever let up on it's own was when i was on a raw vegan organic diet, so i believe it's related to all the poisons they spry over everything & anti-biotics they inject into the animals we eat.
