Suggest Treatment For Clitoris Itching During Pregnancy
Hello. Im 26 weeks pregnant and for the past 3 weeks I have had intense clitoris itching. My OB originally thought yeast infection so I took the monistat treatment, that did nothing. He then suggested hydrocortisone or vagisil which I have alternated between daily, it helps for a while but then goes back to itching. Within thr last 24 hours the clitoris and area around it have become swollen and painful. Any thoughts? It feels almost bruised. And its really red. No bumps, no lesions.

Hi,
Thank you for choosing Healthcaremagic. It seems to be vaginal infection. You need a high vaginal swab to confirm any infection and starting specific treatment. The swollen clitoris could be due to severe itching. Kindly be gentle.
Please ask if you have more questions. If you are satisfied, please make sure that your ACCEPT my answer so that I receive credit. Good luck!!
