Switching soaps is definitely an option. You should also read the labels and see if there are any obvious ingredients that might give you a reaction. Stick to the soaps that work for you, and if symptoms persist even with switching soaps, I would suggest doing a general checkup with you doctor just to confirm that it is indeed the soap that was causing the problem. Hope this helps.

Hello there,

I would stop using the Lever 2000 soap with aloe immediately. There is
a strong possibility that you may be allergic to the aloe. See if maybe
once you stop using Lever 2000 soap with aloe, things settle down i.e.
hopefully the vaginal swelling, itching and burning disappear.
As someone who has sensitive skin and this area is particularly sensitive,
a good choice of soap is Dove Sensitive. Hope this helps. Eve :)

The logical thing to do is go back to your original soap to see if the symptoms go away.  When you have allergies, you must always be part detective to figure out which items cause your quality of life to suffer.  I encourage you to start keeping a log of things that cause you problems, look for common ingredients that might be triggers for you.

Good luck!
