I am 24 and suffer from consistent BV. I have had it treated on several occasions but it always comes back so i have just learned to deal with it. Not the choice i wanted to make but had to stick with. Anyways, recently i noticed some vaginal itching at the entrance. The itching turned to itching and swelling. BAD swelling. It feels like i have a tampon sitting right between the lips. Thats how swollen it is. I dont know what could cause this. I have been using the Nuvaring for about 5 monthes now. What could cause this infection and what can I do to fix this problem while using the ring?? Please help!!

I had similar symptoms recently, best I could figure from the research I did, it was a yeast infection -- and yes i know it's scary/weird to have that swelling -- I put all natural L.acidolphilus filled Yogurt on my vagina... felt pretty ridiculous in doing so but it was cooling and was recommended to me. After a few days of doing this the swelling and the itching slowly subsided.
Look also at diet, clothing (nothing too tight), and stressful situations. ...

Also, do a search on Boric Acid suppositories -- these seem like the best, most curative way to go and they are easy to do yourself - you can get Boric Acid at the drugstore. Good luck!
