Suggest Treatment For Severe Itching Around The Vaginal Area
Question: Hi,
I have been having itching problem in and around vagina and inner thighs for more than two months now. I visited a doctor one month back and she suggested using candid powder to keep the area dry and placing clingen vaginal inserts for three days overnight. She mentioned she doesnt see any discharge or infection. And I have been using Cloben-G continuously. I feel like continuously scratching and I try my best to control. Sometimes the itch feeling is like needle pricking, not always though. I try to wash and dry the area always, ans sometime when I travel overnight, and use restrooms on the way, not able to wash properly and the problems gets worse. Can someone please help me.
Note: I got married XXXXXXX 2016. We were having protected sex from then. Before 3 months we started having unprotected sex. Nowadays due to this problem, we dont have.

Thanks Dr. I checked in a pharmacy and they asked me for a brand name of Fluconazole gel. Can you provide one or two ?
Also, tablet they have 100mg and not 200 mg, is that ok?
