So I'm 17 months post partum having had 3 over the last 7 years.... I've got an issue that I cant find anything about online so looking to see if anyone has had anything similar or if you have any advice.
In June, I noticed some itching! Mainly my perenium and it spread to my bum and vagina. I went to the dr and had lots of swabs and checks... everything from thrush, BV to piles was ruled out. I've been referred to a gynae and have an appointment next week but in the meantime, I'm itching - but just my perineum now - and confused about what it could be.
Since June, I've noticed the itching does become more intense around my period and then eases through the month.. so I'm wondering if it could be low estrogen related.
What I've also noticed - and I don't know how 'normal' this is - is a band of muscle has 'suddenly' appeared horizontal between by vagina and bum. I say 'suddenly' because I actually don't know how long it's been like this. I've noticed it because I'm itching and feeling it a lot but I think if it had been like this forever, I would've noticed it before now?! It feels like a slim band of muscle.this is the thing I'm most concerned about really! It just feels odd
Anyone had anything similar or can give any suggestions?
