Strange Sensation When Urinating

I'm wondering if it is possible to get DH in that area. I have had it in other mucous tissues. I am irritated in that area when I urinate. It doesn't burn or itch like an infection. I have had urinary tract infections before and would feel pain after I went. I am careful about using unscented laundry soap. I always wear cotton underwear. I just wonder what could be going on here.

HI Wowzer, I have had DH in my pubic area, always external, but it itched really bad, you might want to call your ob/gyn or regular dr.

hi so glad this was posted...................... :rolleyes:

Since being gluten-free 2 1/1 years and now soy dairy casein tapioca free.........nightshades and low oxalate diet.......wowow................I'll taking caltrate at each meal but............while 'd' gone and stools formed .........................the urine always feels..............'warm' while passing and warm sensation in the bladder area :blink:

I know WEIRD...........but it's always with me.....................not UTI as i know what that feels like too so....................any ideas--------------

My gut says...............I'm passing oxalates in the urine as in 'dumping' as the LOD people call it.

It's a slight uncomfortable but not painful so wondering............going to put in the oxalate thread too.........just want to cover my bases here as trying to spend less time on computer.

can't wait to hear from you all.

hugs Judy.

PS saw the DH issue............I've had spots of itchy areas before the LOD.......and lots of 'white creamy' yeast like stuff in v outer area but not now..............some crystals like white residue.............but yes to original question i did have that too before.

I did go to my family doctor. He checked me for an infection and it was negative. He also said that my hydration level was fine. I did realize that I had been really swollen in the vaginal area and that went down since I went gluten free. Maybe that is why I'm noticing it more.

      Is it gluten?

      What you’re describing is actually very common, and unfortunately the timing of the biopsy likely explains the confusion. Yes, it is absolutely possible for the small intestine to heal enough in three months on a strict gluten-free diet to produce a normal or near-normal biopsy, especially when damage was mild to begin with. In contrast, celiac antibodies can stay elevated for many months or even years after gluten removal, so persistently high antibody levels alongside the celiac genes and clear nutrient deficiencies strongly point to celiac disease, even if you don’t feel symptoms. Many people with celiac are asymptomatic but still develop iron and vitamin deficiencies and silent intestinal damage. The lack of immediate symptoms makes it harder emotionally, but it doesn’t mean gluten isn’t harming you. Most specialists would consider this a case of celiac disease with a false-negative biopsy due to early healing rather than “something else,” and staying consistently gluten-free is what protects you long-term—even when your body doesn’t protest right away.

      Yes, I meant if you had celiac disease but went gluten-free before screening, your results would end up false-negative. As @trents mentioned, this can also happen when a total IGA test isn't done.

      Trip to Anaheim/Disney

      I found at Disney springs and Disney they have specialist that when told about dietary restrictions they come and talk to you ,explain cross contamination measures tsken and work with you on choices. Its the one place I dont worry once I've explained I have celiac disease.  Thier gluten free options are awesome.

      Desperately need a vitamin D supplement. I've reacted to most brands I've tried.

      Have you tried Pure Encapsulations supplements? This is a brand my doctor recommends for me. I have no issues with this brand.
