Question : My gyno has been no help with this. I have what looks like labia blood blisters that sometimes itch and often bleeding from what looks like cracks in the skin. How can I clear up and keep at bay?

Brief Answer:
Can be due to postmenopausal vaginal dryness.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for posting your query.

The blood blisters with itching near the labia skin suggests dryness in the area due to low levels of estrogen. You can get local estradiol gel prescribed by your gynecologist and apply it on the area twice a day and see if it helps. After menopause the low levels of estrogen causes the itching and such lesions to develop.

I hope this answers your query.
