What Causes Vaginal Itching While On Treatment For Bacterial Vaginosis?
I just got treated for bacterial vaginosis and it was suggested to use canestin cream at the same time for a possible yeast infection. I have the itching coming back but more in the front so urinary area instead of vaginal area. I recently stopped taking birth control but am not sexually active. Could this be related to my cycle?
