Itching and soreness during periods???

Hello Jane, I’ve noticed the exact same thing. It’s almost like whatever hormonal changes we go through at that time seems to make you itch further. I would tell your gp though so you can get peace of mind. I’m sorry that your suffering so much. I wish I had better news for you. I didn’t find that Aldara helped me at all. It left me sore and uncomfortable with no real positive effects. I was being treated with freezing of the patches I had on my vulva for 5 years before a lady finally said to me... why are you here? I said because I was told I have warts. She said to me these are not warts and finally I got told I had hpv and the patches they were freezing and burning was actually vin3. Since then it’s been surgery after surgery and I’m expecting to have number 19 around next March if I’m lucky enough to go that long. My surgeon is amazing and even though I’ve had so many my vulva area still looks ok thank fully. I’m using a dermovate ointment as aldara was so harsh! Good luck with it all xxx

it’s so hard when I was first diagnosed I really struggled to cope. Now the bad days are less but with this condition you just don’t know what’s going to happen. I’ve had the HPV vaccine and I’m taking a number of vitamins including AHCC & B12 to try and stop it coming back. How do they treat the AIN? I’ve got to be assessed for that in January. Where are you based?? England?

take care xx
