Q: Hiiiii so i have a problem. Its been going on ever since i was little. I've been having vaginal problems for eeeeeeeeever! It's so annoying... So, i always get an uncomfortable feeling down there. like, it's similar to the pain of a bladder infecton. it's really hard to explain. most of the time it's not incredibly painful, more often than not its just extremely uncomfortable and annoying and embarassing. (I feel insecure, even though i know no one knows, i still feel embarassed.) I don't know what it is. it's been happening for a long time. it gets worse before, during, and a bit after my period, then it calms down. My sweat glands are also hyperactive, so i sweat a lot, including down there, which can make it worse. summers coming, and i'm afraid... I have to carry Vagisil everywhere with me, and i have to use it almost every day. everyonce in a while there will be a week where i feel great, and then it comes back.I also sometimes get attacks where its excruciatingly annoying aaaand painful. I don't know what to do... its so inconvient. it will ocassionally keep me from having fun because of embarassment, but also because it sometimes get to where it feels uncomfortable to walk. Is there anyone out there who has this problem, and does anyone have any suggestions on how to cope, or cure? thanks~~~~~

You need to see a doctor. You might have a urinary tract infection. Vagisil is used to treat infection, but if you're using it constantly you'll make things worse in the end.
When you go to the doctor's, they'll have you do a pee test. From that they'll be able to tell lots. Chances are that they won't need to do a physical examination.
As for your sweat glands being hyperactive, your best bet is to go with a medicated powder. They're super cheap at the drug store. After you shower and dry off, pat a little bit on your nethers, making sure not to get any on the inside. It will help keep you dry for the rest of the day, and as a bonus it's super refreshing in the summer.
Before you see the doctor, it might not be a bad idea to step up your water intake. That can help flush you out, but keep in mind that no home remedy that you'll read about is a proper substitute for real medical care.

My Personal Forum
My name is Amanda and I'm 26 years old. I'm currently studying electrical engineering. Armed with a fairly odd sense of humour and a sunny outlook on life, I'll take on just about anything. I'm also cussedly stubborn, which has its ups and downs. Things get tough sometimes, and I've never been one to run from it.
In my last 8 years with Advicenators, I've gone from honours student to failing out of university (and getting back on top again!), from single to married, from tenant to homeowner.
Until lately, I have been struggling with a diagnosis of bipolar disorder and OCD, which had basically ruined my life and taken just about everything from me. I'm thankful every day for every experience I've had because of this ordeal, because it's helped to make me who I am today. Things like that really make you appreciate what you do have. Now that I'm back in work and school and starting to become myself again, I couldn't be happier. I credit Advicenators with saving my life back when I was a teenager, which is a big part of why I'm still here.
I won't necessarily give you the answers you want to hear, but I'll always be honest and do my best to help.
