Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Taking Invokana 300 mg daily with 1000 mg metformin twice daily. Have had awful yeast infection and itching. Used diflucan and monistat ovules. Have developed SEVERE vaginal pain upon intercourse. I mean extreme. Never had this before and had hysterectomy in 2002 and have NEVER had pain upon intercourse before. also had ittching in area of urethea. now external pain in area of vulva and a to ging burning pain near urethra and in external tissue. what is causing this pain. so bad I cannot have intercourse. also had faint cramping in occasion like when I use to have my periods
The symptoms seem to be related to a yeast infection. I suggest using Clotrimazole cream for local application. I also suggest using Diflucan tablets for three days one tablet a day. During the treatment, I recommend to avoid intercourse. I also suggest to use cotton underwear and loose clothes.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
