When you have a flare is it inside your vagina? Mine is so raw inside. I have a deep cut on my perineum but I don’t even feel it. Its inside that burns. I’m sitting here with an ice pack between my legs:( I definitely need a new medicine.
I tried estrogen cream years ago and it gave me bad cramping. I tried inserting the pills and had a bad reaction. I cannot tolerate most medications. And unfortunately estrogen is what I need and is making this worse.

Yes, I've had flares just inside vagina so very painful, that's where mine flares up most often I've also had tears in perineum that takes weeks to heal. I have felt so alone in my suffering over the years that I know it has changed me as a person because unless you have this condition you can't imagine the pain and the itching it brings. Every time I get a flare, I feel defeated and worn out.
