Thanks for letting me know. That must be quite a relief for you! Now all you have to do is bring your own toilet paper to work but at least you won't have the itching anymore.

Take care,

Pat

Hi Keisha-

If the itching continues, and you get more sharp pains, you will need to see a gynecologist to get an exam and get answers. Vaginal itching can be due to many things, including yeast infections and other vaginal infections, including sexually transmitted diseases.

Other causes include reactions to chemical irritants that may be found in soaps, douches and vaginal creams, toilet paper, bath products, feminine hygiene products and vaginal contraceptive products.

Since you mentioned this only happens at work, you may want to see if the cause is there - for example, you could be having a reaction to the toilet paper at work, and could test this by bringing in toilet paper you use at home that doesn't result in any type of reaction.

Please let us know what you find out, and good luck!

Best,

Pat
