Getting worried
| Fri, 07-23-2004 - 7:39am |
HI
I really need some advice
about a month ago, I noticed the skin on my outer labia and the area abouve my clitoris where my pubic hair was was getting very dry. I tried rubbing in vaseline/ E45 but it has suddenly become much worse and my skin is flaking off :(
I'm really worried as I have no idea what could be wrong. I haven't used any new cosmetics on my body or washing powder e.c.t
Any help would be greatly appreciated

Good luck and I hope it gets better.
You should see your doctor for a proper diagnosis. You might have an estrogen deficiency that is causing your genitals to dry and the skin to tear easily. That can sometimes happen to women on certain birth control pills. It's important that you see your doctor as soon as possible since if that's your problem the condition won't usually clear up by itself. Let us know how you're doing, ok?
Good luck,
Jill
