Dear T,

Thank you so much for visiting the website and for posting your question here. I'm so sorry that you are dealing with this every month right before your period. I noticed that you said you take medicine for it and that helps, and I'm glad to hear that you can get at least some relief from the itching and burning. Can you tell us what the medicine is called? Do the symptoms go away once your period starts?

I found what Alysia K. wrote to be very interesting. I once read an article about how the pH in the vagina can change at different parts of our cycle (pH measures how acidic or "basic" something is--pure drinking water is a neutral 7 pH). And so Alysia K. writing about her system being acidic really rang a bell with me. This could very well be what is going on with you.

I think her suggestions are excellent and like she said, they are worth a try. Please write back when you can to let us know how you are doing. Thank you so much for coming here for help, and come on back anytime! Big hugs, Michelle
