Birth Control Pills Causing Vaginal Itching/burning?


Apr 17, 2013

So I've been sexually active with the same partner for a year and a half. Recently the area around my vaginal opening has been real itchy, and after I have sex it burns down there for like an hour (kind-of like it would if you had real rough sex). This happened to me once before about 6 months ago, except I gave into the temptation to scratch the itch, and it only made it worse, and everything got all raw and painful down there. I went to the gyno and she gave me a monstat and anti-bacterial cream. Neither of which worked. The only thing that helped even a little was hydrocortisone. However, I changed birth control from the pill (Loestrin Fe) to the depo shot. The itching went away. Was on the shot for like 6 months and couldn't stand it, so I switched back to the same pill two months ago and now the itching has returned. I did not read anything about itching on the side-effects of this birth control, does anyone know what the deal is?
 
Things I know that it's not, so please don't suggest them.
 
Yeast Infection
-No smell or discharge.
-Monistat doesn't help.
-Itching on the outside NOT inside of my vagina.
 
STD
-Me and my partner are both clean and yes, I know that for a fact.
 
Sperm Allergy
-I never use condoms and have never had a problem, either vaginally or orally. 
 
Also, I do not use any soaps to wash down there, only water, so it shouldn't be a chemical allergy either.

Cataflam Causing Headaches With Birth Control Pills?

I am 29 years old and I take contraceptive pills. As I understood the doctor, those pills are mixture of estrogen and progesterone. But, since I have strong headaches from time to time, that usually happens in the period time, I take diclofenac (cataflam). Can you tell me if there is a relation between cataflam and birth control pills?

Vaginal Health :: Burning Itching Sensation

In my feminine area I have a very bad burning itching sensation that also feels like I have open sores in that area. When I am sitting down it is not as bad but when I am standing and walking around I want to die it hurts so bad. I am a waitress and it makes my life a living hell when ever I work that I have called in sick many times because it gets so bad. I have tried many creams, soaps and even just used water while I clean this area and they all make it worse. I have been to the doctors to be tested for UTI, bladder and yeast infections and all came back negative. My doctors wants to test for STD but I have never in my life had any kind of sexual intercourse.

Contraception :: Taken Two Microgynon Birth Control Pills In One Day

I've had a lot of breakthrough bleeding the last few weeks and am looking into changing my pill. However I'm going to a spa weekend this weekend and read online that to help with break through bleeding you can take two pills on one day and then carry on as normal. I have done this and hope to carry on with my normal pack tomorrow however all day I have felt very nauseous and have had a dodgy tummy constantly on the toilet. Is this because of the extra hormones my body isn't taking it very well? I did take them on an empty stomach stupidly as it was early and I didn't really think. Just worried I'm going to be really ill.

Birth Control :: Missed Two Pills In One Month?

I would like some help (Because deciding whether or not I will take Plan B pill) Anyways. I have been on birth control for about almost 2 years now. I have always been good about it, but I have been stressed this month so I messed up a bit. First I missed it on the very first white pill that you start (I didn't double up, I took regularly) then I missed it this week once (the third week pills) which was a few days ago (again I didn't double up, I just took regularly after) then today I had unprotected sex. I have plan b and am contemplating on taking it in order to be safe. My questions are:

If I didn't take the Plan b, would I be okay?

If I do take the plan B, will it make me super sick? and should I take my birth control regular since I have took Plan B?

Birth Control :: Taking Pills While On Depo

About a month into my first shot of Depo I began to bleed. After about 10 days of it I went to the doctor and they gave me estrogen pills to take for 10 days. They slowed down the bleeding, but didn't stop it. After I was done with the pills, the bleeding became heavier and I started getting really bad cramps. I went back in yesterday and they gave me Birth control pills to try to regulate it. It's been 2 days, but the bleeding and cramps are still there. it's just really bringing me down. I use to have a really active lifestyle, but all I want to do now is just stay home in bed. I've also lost about 4 lbs since the bleeding started. It has totally killed my sex life as well. My partner wants to have sex and so do I but the bleeding is just too embarrassing that I'd rather just make up some excuse to not do it. I don't know what else to try.

Birth Control :: Missed Taking Two Pills

I delayed taking 2 birth control pills in a row (the first delay was of 11 hours and the second of 7 hours). Worried that the efficacy was compromised, I took a morning after pill 30 hours after unprotected intercourse. I continued taking my pills normally. Now, a week after taking the ECP I had a light bleeding. I know it is common, but I thought I wouldn't have it because I am on the pills. So, can I still bleed from the ECP withdrawal even taking birth-control pills? Or is it an implantation bleeding?
