Suggest Remedy For Itchy Skin Rashes In Pubic Area
I am currently taking Cilest contraceptive pill and am suffering with itchy skin, no rash assosciated. The itch is all over but especially pubic area. Is this a known side effect of this particular pill? I had the very same symptoms during pregnancy

Hello,
The symptoms seem to be related to a yeast infection. They do not seem to be related to the contraceptive pill. I recommend to use an antifungal cream for local application such as Clotrimazole cream. I also recommend to maintain a good hygiene and use cotton loose underwear.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
