NCd obv. Apols for TMI.

Doctor has done a swab and said it is unlikely to be thrush or BV. I did a home test kit that said the same. Dr said most likely eczema and to keep it moisturised Hmm , not use soap, blah blah. I don't anyway, just wash with water.

Had a fairly comprehensive STI screening and nothing detected.

It itches like fuck. All the time. On my vulva skin. And is sore sore sore.

Discharge does not smell. It is usually white and not much of it, but it dries inside my vulva like a smear of toothpaste which can be rubbed off. For one week a month mid cycle it is clear and runny and copious. The itching is far worse then.

Sex irritates it. Wiping after the loo irritates it. It keeps me awake at night with The Fucking Itch. If I scratch it, it gets even more sore.

FML. It has been like this for literally Years. Worse at times, better at times.

I've tried yogurt, tea tree oil, vinegar, canesten, HC cream, probiotics, antibiotics, low carb diet, no yeast diet, cotton undies, non bio washing powder...Not sure what else I can try.

Anyone else had this and can point me to some help?

It can be. It absolutely can be. So please don't make comments like that ^

It doesn't take a genius to realise that people are affected differently by all medical conditions.

More than one in FOUR people with psoriasis develop Psoriatic Arthritis and that really is a serious and debilitating condition.

It’s an autoimmune disorder, yes, it’s a pain to get rid of but most people are able to manage it fine. Like me.

Get rid of? You man the skin flakes right? Because it doesn't 'go away'

Not sure if anyone is reading this, but it could be cytolitic Vaginosis, or a treatment resistant strain of thrush (apparently the over the counter meds and fluconizole etc only treat the most common strain of thrush). I've had these symptoms for 10 years and have struggled so much to get a diagnosis. I've got new found hope after hearing above these two possibilities on other mumsnet threads, so gonna march down to a sexual health clinic next week and start again to try and get some answers.
