Itching Inside The Vagina. Treated For Thrush. Taking High Insulin Dosage. Is That The Reason?
Hi, I have a sensation deep in the vagina , it s an uncomfortable feeling sort of like an itch but more of an irritation. I have taken a one capsule treatment for thrush but didn t seem to work. It removed the white discharge but that s it. Now I still have the sensation on the right side of my vagina with no irritation. I do have high insulin levels and am stressed with exams atm. Could this be it? Thanks

Hi, thanks for writing..
yes, in diabetic patients, it is common to have vaginal and oral candidiasis.. A good control over sugar level is important.. You can use clotrimazole vaginal pessary to treat the fungal infection.. If still it persists you will have to take antifungals like flucanazole orally.. hope I have answered your query.. Good day..
