What Causes Redness And Itching Sensation In Vulva In Spite Of Taking Plan B?
Hi,I had unprotected sex 2 days ago and took plan b about 4 hours later, just to be safe, even though I am on the pill. I have experienced a real itchy and red vulva, is this from the plan b and will pass? Or is it something else? Also, I was recently tested for a yeast infection and bv and was negative, but had sex after getting the test. Thank you.
