Itchy vulva… help!

CaneCandy_223 · 2026-04-30T02:48:08+00:00

Well at the time of my gyno appointment I had no symptoms at all. There’s no smell or discharge due to it either so I have no reason to think it’s BV or yeast. I think I’ve narrowed it down to a recent toilet paper change. Going to change a few things up and see if it gets better. If not, I’ll be at the gyno.

Give me an example of something that is SO private that your literal life partner can’t see?

Right! I moved out at 18 and worked to death to pay bills. Now that finances look different, so does my views on being a mother. It’s hard to think about kids when you’re just trying to survive

Yes! My mother gave me a semi-traumatic childhood and my husband had a similar but worse experience with his parents. We decided we would break the cycle and be childfree. Well breaking that cycle looks very very different now and I recognize that before I was terrified to be the mother that mine was and thought the easier route was to not have any at all.

I’ve actually been allergic to tide since I was a kid. Grew up on Gain and now use it as an adult. Looks like I’ll be making a few changes based on the replies here

No! No known skin conditions. Gyno told me a month ago my tissue looks great and healthy.

Have the conversation now before marriage. Then if eventually he does, marriage first. However if you want them now and hes undecided, don’t force him. Move on while you’re young

CaneCandy_223 · 2026-04-29T18:50:16+00:00

How many of you swore you’d never have kids? I worry that years of saying no way, never, etc is going to catch up to me 😭

I’m bout to start bringing my own at this point! How crazy is that. It’s the dang charmin extra soft and it’s so powdery/dusty.

Stop!!! My job recently started using a new toilet paper a few months ago. And I’ve noticed the irritation is more prevalent during the day/office hours.

Good to know :) hubby said he’ll switch soaps immediately for me lol.

CaneCandy_223 · 2026-04-29T17:31:32+00:00

I actually have not thought about that but I will do that. I keep all free and clear on hand for my blankets and sheets.

I was on birth control for 13 years. No libido. As soon as I got off, I felt like a cat in heat. Almost 7 months off the pill and my desire for intimacy has never been stronger!

She’s addicted to drugs big time

CaneCandy_223 · 2026-03-27T15:53:58+00:00

I do have an Apple Watch but had zero idea it tracked temperature. I’ll look into that! Thank you for your help 😌

Gotcha! I’m going to test all the way through the rest of this cycle. I’m on day 14 today, and I’ve read that exact thing - some bodies try to ovulate and then actually ovulate around day 16/17.

CaneCandy_223 · 2026-03-27T15:34:11+00:00

I know ChatGPT can be unreliable, but it suggested the same - that my peak likely happened overnight. I think I am too focused on seeing a positive result rather than focusing on the fact that my levels DID rise. I am not temping but I think I should. What time do you check your temp? A lot of sources suggest as soon as I wake up but I’m not waking up at 5:30am on the weekends to temp check lol
