*TMI* itching down there?

Sorry this is kinda personal but is anyone experiencing any itching down there? I'm 6 weeks 3 days and it's been for the last 5 days or so... Itching is on my skin down there (not inside like a yeast infection). I've noticed that my discharge has also increased, normal white/cream color. Is this normal....?

    I got that last time I was pregnant. My ob told me it was because of my hormones changing and it's normal. If it gets bad though and you think it's turned into a yeast infection then you'll want to use some monistat. The 7 day kind, not the 1 or 3 day.

  • No problem! LOL tmi but I also noticed if I don't shave for a few days that can make me a little itchy too. :\"> whichever the case, try to relax! :)
  • Me! I so wanted to post this but didnt. I don't know if it's from shaving extra good down there since I just had that intense physical exam w the doc (I didn't wanna scare her!) and it's growing back?? But I scratched until I bled and then freaked out mc I thought it was spotting bright red blood again. Worst feeling ever.

    Oh that sounds awful!! You might try coconut oil. Sounds crazy but I used it when I would get itchy (softens the hair and inhibits yeast). I thought it worked great!
  • Thank you @longhurrdontcurr! I have some too!
