  5. Hi doctor, about a month ago I started experiencing itching near my bikini area, and it's been spreading day by day. The skin has become really dry and it's peeling off, almost like it's broken. I saw a doctor who prescribed TEXIFEN cream, but Im still having the same issue. What should I do next?

In addition to the cream you have been using, I recommend adding an antifungal medication like Clotrimazole cream, You can also take an oral antifungal medication like Fluconazole to treat the infection from the inside. Make sure to keep the area clean and dry, wear loose-fitting cotton underwear, and avoid tight clothing to help with the healing process.
