But I am really itchy around the outside of my vigina especially inside my clittorous, I have not had a sexually partner for nearlly 3 years after I split from my husband.

maybe your washing it too much and getting rid of all the good bacteria
May be thrush …….. It happens to the best of us love get a drop of cream or pop into the chemist and explain you itchy problem.
Oh if it is thrush you may want to be careful what you wash in, don’t wear too tight clothes around your wotsit x
Probably something else going on:
1. diabetes?
2. allergy
3. secondary yeast
Lab tests (Clue cell) should diagnose bv – think of other possiblities
Not all types of vaginosis have a fishy smell there are 3 types, 2 have a fishy smell and one doesn’t. I’ve supplied some information to help you…
sex is actually an important function for a healthy vagina. please see your local male stud for assistance
it is possible that you could have something called mixed anaerobes, which are nothing to worry about. Some women do tend to have reocurring bouts of this. It is simply a bacteria that grows in warm, moist conditions. Avoid feminine washes and dont douche (put water inside your vagina). wear cotton knickers and if you can, dont wear pants to bed, give it some air!!
taking antibiotics can destroy the ‘good’ bacteria in your vagina and leave you with different ‘bad’ bacteria that can develop into thrush and other lovely nasties. this is what causes the itching. if it is driving you mad use a tampon dippped in natural yoghurt. it is really safe and so soothing for this. i found the creams for thrush etc were no use at all. also dont use any soap in your bath but add some bicarb of soda/ baking powder – supposed to help…dont have water too hot either…. and only wear cotton pants and loose trousers or skirt x
