Is Clitoral Bleeding A Cause For Concern During Vaginal Fungal Infection?
I felt I had a yeast inf. Around my clitoral area. Was very sore and swollen. Used monostat cream for a couple day s that did not help. My GP called in oral med. For yeast. After 3 days I was feeling better but noticed blood later that day when I wiped from the clitoral area. Should I consult a GYN ?

Hi,
The clitoris is richly supplied by blood vessels. So excessive irritation/inflammation /itching is likely to cause bleeding. Profile bleeding needs to be attended by a gynecologist. Otherwise, oral medication with local hygiene &ointment would help.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
