For the past week the area around my vagina has been red and itchy and my clit is itchy too. I went to the doctor and he said yeast, didn t test or check me. Just gave me the 7 day cream to insert inside. After the 7 days I see no improvement. Could it be something else?
The symptoms are more consistent with infective causes like yeast or bacterial vaginosis. Consult a gynaecologist and plan for a vaginal swab to confirm the diagnosis.
As of now, you can use Clotrimazole lotion to cleanse your genitals.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
