Ive only just noticed it but i suspect a day or so. It is a little itchy. No other meds or discharge. Ive just put some hydrozole cream on and it has relieved itching and irritation
Hi there. Great that it is relieving the itching. Might i suggest adding on a miconazole or ketoconazole cream, mixing it 1:1 on the palm of your hand & applying this twice/daily for 3-5 days. Then, stop the hydrozole crem & apply just the plain miconazole or ketoconazole (prefer latter) cream twice/daily for a further week. Assuming there is no vaginal itch or discharge, this should see you in the 'pink' soon! If there is any associated vaginal discharge or a shadow of doubt (& you are not pregnant at the moment as it does have side effects on fetus), please take a ONE-Time dose of 200mg fluconazole. This should quell any fungal overlay! Cheers & Good Day! Trust this advice has been useful & wish you well!
