What Do White Discoloration And Itching On The Vagina Indicate?

default
Posted on Tue, 26 Mar 2019
Question: What does normal female genitalia look like. Mine is white. I've had itching for many months. I've been treating it with nystatin, fluconazole, and ketconazole cream along with a candida diet for 3 months. The itching is minimal now, but I worry that there is a big problem. Shouldn't the skin be pink?

I'm not sure if I did everything to get an answer. Is there something else you need?

Thank you. I have used these ointments in the past with great relief. I have also added a new one that I got when I was living in East XXXXXXX (I can only get it there) called Beclomin cream. I didn't think of going to see a dermatologist and I don't currently have a gynecologist as I have just moved back to the states after living overseas. Thank you for your help.

Brief Answer:

It depends upon your general complexion

Detailed Answer:

Hi,

Are you using these ointments as per dermatologist's suggestion?
If not you need to get a direct checkup. There are few conditions associated with itching and colour changes in and around vagina other XXXXXXX yeast.

It can be even an allergic dermatitis. You can try wearing cotton briefs and avoid using at home. If you feel that there are markable changes in the color consult your dermatologist.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr B Radhakrishnan. Nair, OBGYN
