niki20 agony aunthighly unlikely it is a std/sti it sounds more like a yeast infection. i would go to your gyn to make sure that it is a yeast infection before treating it b/c you dont want to treat something that is not there. is your discharge thicker then usual or do you smell funny down there? those are all signs of a yeast infection so i would see a dr and the med for it is just otc. if you have had sex w/someone that you think could have given you something def go see a dr. for the time being take what is called a sitz bath, fill your tub with enough warm water to wear it only comes up to your hips. sit in it for about ten/fifteen min. once or even twice a day. goodluck i hope it helps.

It is possible if you've had unprotected sex that it could be a disease, but it's more likely just thrush (yeast infection), thrush is a minor infection that's easily treated. Go to your doctor or gaeno and get checked they'll prescribe a treatment.

Have you ever had a yeast infection? Because that's what those feel like. But you need to go to a gnyo Love, becuase even if we can tell you exactly what it is, we can't tell you what to do about it.

Its probs not a disease, but you could have infected it in some way or irritated it so my advice would be to see a doctor and stop itching it
