What Causes Severe Vaginal Itching While Urinating?

default
Posted on Fri, 23 Oct 2015
Question: For 3 days now, every time I pee, my vagina starts itching and it feels like there is pressure around the opening. I thought I was getting a yeast infection but it only itches while I'm urinating. I have been having unprotected sex with my boyfriend for several months and wondered if he could have given me something.

Brief Answer:
Drink more water and get urine tested

Detailed Answer:
Hello,

Thanks for your query.

I have read you query and I understand your concerns about itching.

Following is my reply:

1) Problem you described happens typically in urinary tract infection ( UTI ).

2) You need to drink more water.

3) If you see no relief in a week , you need to give your urine for culture and sensitivity test. You can take antibiotics as per the test report.

4) Meanwhile I suggest you could use vaginal pessaries like clotrimazole to treat yeast infection which has increased UTI.

I hope I answered you query and addressed your concerns.

Let me know if you wish to ask any further questions. I will be glad to help you.

Regards,
Dr. Soumya
