General & Family Physician, Dr. Vasudha's Response
HI, Thanks for the query. I understand your concern. The problem you have seems to be due to either allergy to the chemicals or materials in the tampon Or change in normal bacterial habitat in vagina.. causing vaginal lining more susceptible to friction/ infection. Advise for- - A check up by gynecologist to detect infection/ Vaginal swab test to understand about vaginal mucosa & bacterial habitat/ - Blood counts to detect allergy, - Use of lacxtbascillus containing vaginal pills to improve vaginal bacterial flora. Thanks.
