I have been using Vagisil for a few weeks to deal with bothersome odors, and since yesterday, I have vaginal itching.

It is recommended to stop using Vagisil, as it can irritate the skin and mucous membranes, leading to more odors and potential infections. Instead, a gentle, unscented soap like Dove may be more suitable. If itching persists, consider using an antifungal treatment like Canesten. If symptoms are bothersome or last more than a few days, consulting a healthcare professional may be necessary.
