4 Weeks Post - Vaginal Area Still Irritated and Itchy

Four weeks post op yesterday. Still have vaginal irritation, discharge (which I know is normal) and very itchy. Went to my original doctor who was supposed to do the surgery in January for some 2nd opinion urology answers (she's a urogyno) and she did a check and said it looks like I have some redness that could be yeast. All the swabs my GYN and Urologist did came back negative, but she said that yeast on the outside won't show up on a swab test! WHAT?!!!!!! I have Diflucan but that stuff just rips up my stomach and irritates my IBS. Not sure what else I can take for it. Can't put anything in vaginally for a few more weeks.

My girlfriend said after her hysto she would get a lot of yeast infections and they gave her this cream to use for a week and never has one since. It's been a year since her surgery. She can't remember the cream and her doctor retired!

I'm having same issue this week. My Dr gave me a pill to clear up yeast infection.
Just finished up taking antibiotics for uti.
Hopefully this pill helps .
Hope you start feeling better soon

Guess pill she gave me is exactly what you said irratates your stomach & IBS.
Anyone know if proibitics help after taking so many antibiotics? Just want my body to feel healthy again.

I started taking Culturelle about two weeks ago and had to stop. It gave me diarreha. I'm going to my Gastro next week to sort all this crap out. I dnn't like taking medication to begin with, and now I'm on Estriadol (1mg), Cymbalta and Klonopin (when needed). I too want to feel normal again. I'm only four weeks out and I see all the posts of how long it takes to get balanced out......UGH!

sucks. I totally agree. I had my surgery 2 days before you. It's frustrating !!
