I m not sexually active, in fact it I ve never had sex. I m not sure but I think it started when i washed my vagina with soap. could you please give me some advise on what it might be and what to do. thankyou
[|AI|]  Dear lady, What you describe is a common yeast infection of the vagina. The skin inside your vagina is usually covered by a layer of healthy bacteria, which produce an acidic mucus that protects from yeasts and other sort of infections like bad bacteria. This is why you shouldn't use soap to wash your vagina, because soap can kill the healthy bacteria, and help the yeast infection to stabilize and produce the aforementioned symptoms. If you were my patient, I would recommend using Fluconazole 1200 mg suppository inserted in your vagina. It is used only once, and it will get rid of the yeast infection. But if you want someone close to follow you, please visit a local doctor. I would also recommend you to now use soap again to wash your vagina, running water is more than enough. I hope I have helped you understand your condition better. Do not worry, as I said in the beginning this is a common infection totally treatable. Wish you health, Manoku ENI, M.D.
