I'm experiencing a burning sensation near my vaginal area when I pee, and there's also itching around that area and my anus. I've noticed there are some small pimples near my vagina too. What could this be and should I be worried?
Burning sensation near the vaginal area when passing urine and feeling itching near vaginal area and anus and I can feel a small pimples down the vagina. These symptoms could indicate a possible yeast infection or a bacterial infection. I recommend using an over-the-counter antifungal cream like Monistat for yeast infection. Apply it externally around the vaginal area and follow the instructions on the package. Additionally, you can take an over-the-counter pain reliever like ibuprofen for the burning sensation. If the symptoms persist or worsen, it is important to consult a healthcare provider for further evaluation and treatment.

I'm 31 and had my first IUI on August 17th. I had four follicles around 21-24mm and my husband's sperm count was 110 million. Now it's the fifth day post-IUI and I'm feeling mild cramping in my lower back and abdomen, similar to period cramps, but my period isn't due until September 4th. Should I be concerned about these symptoms or schedule a visit with my gynecologist?
The mild cramping you're experiencing five days post-IUI is likely due to ovulation or implantation, but to confirm and alleviate concerns, schedule a follow-up appointment with your gynaecologist around 14-16 days post-IUI for a pregnancy test
