I am having itching and irritation in my vulva (inside the lips and clitoris). I consulted the doctor and take treatment for one week (fluconazole 150 mg and cetrizine 10 mg tablets for one week at bedtime) but there is no improvement in it. What should I do?

Treatment depends on the severity. Fungus or yeast infection. Common around skin folds like thighs and genitals. Avoid sweating, sharing clothes, towels and soap. Specific medicine required depends on the severity. For detailed prescription do direct online consultation by sending photos.
