Default Can you suddenly become allergic to panty liners? - 09-20-2008, 07:29 PM

I have recently developed, what I presume is an allergy, to pant liners. I've been having my period for years now and I have never had a problem like this before. I become insanely itchy, and it feels like very very bad thrush, though it only happens a few days into wearing a liner. Is it possible to develop an allergy like this? And also after years of usage?
Thanks.
Yeah I mean by a few days into wearing a liner, that I change them regularly.

You might have a yeast infection, and wearing a pant liner will only trap the infection. Try switching brands and if it doesn't work I'd go see your GP.

Yep - they use horrid bleached cotton in them.

Find a brand that works for you - I like Kotex - an stick with it! And change them often.

You can become allergic to dogs even though you've had them for years, if that answers that question. Also try 2 tsp of apple cider in a cup of hot water. Dip a paper towel into the bowl & wipe your feminine region well, let sit for a minute or so, whilst you wash the rest of you, & then rinse. Another common problem is that women tend to get dressed while they are still damp, this can cause problems also. Wearing cotton panties is best, but be sure you're dry first & ALWAYS wash you new undies thoroughly. Easy on the detergent & NEVER use bleach or fabric softeners.
