"I am pregnant and I have persistent irritation from the perineum to the anus. It burns and itches. What could relieve me?"

It is recommended to use a fragrance-free soap, such as Dove or Allenburys, to clean the irritated area. If previous treatments for vaginitis have not been successful, it is important to consult a doctor for further evaluation. A zinc oxide cream can help protect the irritated area temporarily. This type of cream is safe to use during pregnancy.
