Hello,

Thanks for writing to us.

According to your information, burning and itching sensation may be due to chemical component of the pill or vaginal yeast infection. Do a urine examination for R/E, M/E and vaginal swab test to confirm the diagnosis.

For that, I suggest to consult with your gynecologist and take advice accordingly. You may need to use VAGISIL cream and CLINGEN FORTE vaginal suppository for 3-5 days to reduce vaginal itchinn (including clitoris part).

Maintain genital hygiene properly. Wear clean and cotton underwear. Keep the area always dry. Avoid chemical bath products.

Take care and Be well.
