I have pain in my vagina?

Question

Hello, for the last 2-3 days I have had vaginal pain. I have had vaginitis in the past, but this time the Canesten doesn't improve the situation at all! I am menstruating and it hurts to keep a tampon in! Also, I have a small piece of skin that seems to have formed at the opening of my vagina, which does not seem to be bleeding. I'm 22 years old and have a steady boyfriend, so I guess it's not an STD.

Hello, thank you for your question! If used correctly, Canesten produces a clear improvement of symptoms after 3 days. If you are not 100% sure of the correct use of the product, I invite you to contact your pharmacist who will be able to give you all the necessary explanations. Otherwise, if the product is used properly but the symptoms persist after 3 days, it may not be the right treatment. In this case, you will need to consult a doctor to get the right diagnosis and treatment. I hope this helps, and if you have any further questions, please don't hesitate to ask! Tom Samaha, pharmacist
