I am new to this website.. My question is that I am on my period and my clitoris seems to kinda hurt i've never experienced this before. I am 19. It kinda itched early so I itched it and that is when I noticed it. It does not hurt terribly but something I am kind of worried about.

Dragonflymagic answered Tuesday February 11 2014, 6:27 pm: I have experienced not itching but soreness from a period lasting longer than usual and the wetness against the skin for that prolonged amount of time making it feel sensitive and sore. Perhaps washing with only water, (no soap and patting dry will help)
If however this is the start of an infection, Females will get them life long no matter how concientious they are about their health and whether or not they are sexually active. The itching is one of the signs of vaginitis.
Vaginitis is an inflammation of the vagina It can result in discharge, itching and pain, and is often associated with an irritation or infection of the vulva. You may not feel anything anywhere else yet if its just starting. So if it gets to feeling worse over the next day or two, call and make an appt with the Dr. or go to planned parenthood. They can help too. [ Dragonflymagic's advice column | Ask Dragonflymagic A Question ]
