What Causes Itching And Irritation Around The Vagina And Anus?

What could cause itching and irritation on the outer lips of vagina and closer to the anus? I was checked by gynaecologist, who ruled out yeast infection, BV, and any other bacterial/fungal related problems. I was prescribed an antihistamine which doesn t help it and topical steroidal cream which has no effect either. Thanks, Natalie

Hello,

Itching and irritation around vagina and anus -ruled out fungal infection by your doctor.
You have to rule out any worm infestation like pinworm
Try tab. albendazole. Get done stool examination and review.
