Hello, my name is Joana, sorry my English is not the best
5 months ago I'm having problems in genitas organs.
Initially began to feel a burning sensation in the genitals after putting several medications for fungi the situation has improved, but it starts to get  worse
In second phase I went to genecologista he sent me  to the dermatologist because I was diagnosed dermatitis medicated me with curtisona and Protopic past two months mucous have a normal appearance but a burning sensation continues.

I'm getting desperate, I went to a lot of doctors, they  told me it could be an autoimmune disease. I researched and I think may be the cedialac disease, I will do tests.
While walking causes me burning, I can not wear underwear,  I need help please!!
Does anyone have the same symptoms, or know of anything?

Thank you, please if you know something answer me. :(

Ouch.  My first thought was it could be a yeast (candida) infection.  That can cause a great deal of discomfort.

 

The rash associated with celiac disease is dermatitis herpetiformis (dh).  It is a horribly itchy rash that is very sensitive to gluten consumption.  We have a forum for dh here, so asking questions about it there could give you more information. https://www.celiac.com/forums/forum/26-dermatitis-herpetiformis/

 

To see if the rash is dh, a doctor will need to biopsy and test beside the rash.  You can also have blood tests done: tTG IgA, tTG IgG, DGP IgA, DGP igG, EMA IgA, total serum IgA and maybe the older AGA IgA and AGA IgG tests.  Do not eat gluten-free until testing is done.

 

I'm sure other with rash experience will offer more advice.  Best wishes.

I have to say it doesn't sound like classic Dermatitis Herpetiformis.

Welcome to the forum.  What country are you located in?

 

What you describe doesn't sound like a typical presentation of DH.  While it wouldn't hurt to get tested for that and Celiac disease, have you been tested for other things, such as Sexually Transmitted Diseases?  Have you had cultures done, where they can see if there is bacteria or yeast there?  It just seems like something may have been missed, such as a bad yeast infection perhaps.  I would see another doctor for a second opinion.

Research Lichen Sclerosus. It is a skin disease that some doctors classify as an autoimmune disorder. It mostly affects the genitals. Some get it on their chest. No one know why it happens. It happens mostly to women. There is no cure, but special hydrocortisone medication for it can relieve itching and some pain. It seems to affect those with hormonal issues like those with thyroid disease or menopausal hormone drops. You can not infect your partner.

A biopsy may be required.

I wish you well.

Hi everyone, my intolerance to gluten tests came back negative , but I gave positive bigotry bread yeast , I have seen on other blogs people who complain that by eating bread are burning with the genitals but will very little information about it . I will two weeks without eating bread, pasta, cereals, chocolates, drink milk or any alcoholic drink, basically just as fruit, soup, meat, fish .

My situation during these two weeks seemed to be improving , but it seems I was wrong, I still have a great ardor , when stray too walk my vagina ignites , today for example I did almost nothing and I have a big burning felling. I do not have fungi , itching , done a big variety of tests all come out negative. I am desperate please share you know .
Does anyone know how long I have to go without eating bread yeast to see results ?

Thank you

      I'm pretty sure that in stores, you can find plenty of gluten-free options. But they are usually a bit more expensive.

      Hello @BunnyBrown and welcome to the forum. I cannot say that I have had the procedure you describe, but recently I did have general surgery and was routinely intubated.  That pain was what troubled me most after the operation, far more than the operation site.  It took a few days to really settle down, I was quite badly bruised. It was taking so long I was a bit concerned so asked the question on another forum. A few patients came back to me and said they had suffered the same.  I imagine in my own case possibly the throat got bashed about a bit,  maybe they had difficult inserting the tube?  I've suffered with a painful throat post-endoscopy too, but never as long as the intubation pain.   I hope you will be feeling better very soon.   PS BTW - love the name!  I saw this today in an Easter display in a shop and your name reminded me of it.🙂

      This wonderful, Anne. I think you have a point about why people disappear off forums.  I found the first few years post diagnosis a real struggle and frankly wondered if I would ever feel better (not to dishearten people, but just to say it can take a while longer for some folk to heal).  However, once my antibodies were back within normal range it really has made a big difference to my health.  I've chosen to stick around because I'm a Mod, otherwise I might have been one of those that disappeared, too!
