Im not enjoying making love atm!!! (sorry if it TMI!!)

[biglips]

as it hurts!!...

Before i was pg..i had thrush for 4 yrs (due to a crap unhappy job i was in) and it cleared up by itself when i fell pg - hooray!!..

i had an emergency c section with DD so didnt have a natural birth.

I havent got thrush but it feels abit sore on the bottom bit of my vagina before the perineum. im well lubricated inside but ive gotta use k y jelly which ive ran out of atm.

i last made love 4 weeks ago and i cant carry on this long but it is still abit sore only when i check myself.

what it is???

buti dont feel ive got thrush but it could be as its on the outside that is hurt and not inside of the vagina

Hello, have you heard of something called candida? You should try altering your diet, i used to get re-occuring thrush for about 2 or 3 years then i cut out yeast and i'm all better. Do you have too much sugar or yeast in your diet?

prob more of yeast than sugar. Mine was there forever cos of the depression. When im really down my body takes ages to heal

what else can i do?....and what about my DP too?....i cant go to the docs as there are all men!!

i would try to cut out all yeast and also book appointment with gynaecologist so they can check it all out. Try cutting out yeast for 1 month and see if there is any improvement. unfortunately i dont think there are any quick fixes in this kind of situation.

You can ask dr to refer you to female gynae.

i will have a go on the yeast situation..how do i get to see one of the gynaecologist??...thru my GP?

x - post

yes ask your gp to refer you to gynae you can ask for a female as well. Are you still suffering with dp?

what you mean still suffering with dp?

sorry my mumsnet lingo not very good. you asked what about your dp, what does that stand for?

darling partner

sorry i thought it meant depression!! It is a difficult situation, i would just try to re-assure him, he might feel very rejected and unwanted.

well it had been a stressful time for us both as he had now taken over her boss's business 2 weeks ago so he is tired himself and ive been shattered too cos of the sinus headaches which i prob not getting a good night sleep for ages.

i will call the docs today

many thanks

no problem x
