My Skin Has Been Peeling Off My Clitoris Under The Hood

Hi, the skin has been peeling off my clitoris under the hood for a few weeks now. It will heal for a bit but as soon as my boyfriend touches it again the skin starts peeling and little cuts develope on my clit. I recently had Mono and strep throat (about 2 months ago). I m wondering if its a problem from all the antibiotics or somthing else?

Hello.
Thanks for choosing HealthcareMagic forum.
Antibiotics do not cause such a fragile skin of clitoris. The peeling off may be due to some STD.You must get yourself examined from a dermatologist to rule out any STD. Meanwhile for relief, you can apply any antiseptic ointment with steroid in it.
