Labial abscess

Has anyone had a labial abcess due to the moisture and medications we are all on. Unfortunately this is my second one and it's kind of painful. i will be calling dr tomorrow to see if they need to drain it or what. Last month it was a yeast infection from these meds I can't win. Ugh please tell me I'm not alone 

Re: Labial abscess

  • Ouch! I have not had experience with the abscess, but historically I have had recurrent yeast infections and bacterial vaginosis, I use the vaginal prebiotic Luvena-it was recommended by my ob (over the counter) and it helps to keep your normal bacterial flora down there, I use it weekly, might be something worth trying during your treatments to try and prevent future infections....sorry, like you need that with everything else your going through !

  • I don't have the same thing, but I have had issues with asymptomatic bacterial vaginosis (so I have a bacterial infection, but couldn't feel it).  I cleared it up with antibiotics, and have been on a probiotic since then to help prevent it.  That might help maintain the proper flora.
