Hi. I have a friend who, after many years of the same bath soap, clothes washing detergent, etc. had to change due to vaginal irritation. She now uses Dove and has no problems at all. I would try to switch to a mild soap if you are not using one already and see if it helps (Try Dove or Ivory.) If not call your doc!
