Hello, for about a month now I have had a burning vagina. I am 60 years old. This happened 5 days after I had unprotected sex. I am not sure if it is related. I have been to my internist and 2 ob/gyns. I have tested negative for any STD or UTI. Last visit to ob/gyn was 2 days ago. She is treating me for yeast, although I have no discharge and no odor...just burning. So far...no relief. The first ob/gyn suggested vagifem...and told me that this was part of post menopause...I am not certain of this. I am at my wits end. Any suggestions...has this ever happened to anyone else...what was the answer?

It seems to me that at age 60 you have decreased amounts of natural vaginal secretions--this is the problem.

Adding anything to the vagina just worsens the situations...such as creams, meds, soaps, bath products....

If I were you, I would not put anything near my vagina for a couple of weeks, nothing but water...no soap, no nothing.

That should clear up the situation.

Oh, and no intercourse/sexual contact either.
