Have you ever heard of having a bacterial infection on the skin around your vagina?

I had an exam done at the gyno yesterday..I am 32 weeks pregnant. She told me my vagina was healthy but the skin around it where pubic hair would be if I didn’t shave had a bacterial infection. She has given me a cream and an antibiotic for it. I have never heard of your vagina being infection free but the area around it be infected! Have you? Also, she told me to stop shaving. I really don’t want to do that, is there any other way to avoid this infection in the future?

do not wax. it is hell painful.
stop shaving until the time that the infection goes away. also when you shave again after that, use a new razor each time and make sure it is clean and new. shaving alone should not give you the infection. also, make sure you wash properly.
you should be fine.
Get waxed instead!! shaving is dirty and probably not safe if youre pregnant. It breaks the skin and causes irritation. Its probably just infected skin from ingrown hairs or cuts.
