Talk to experienced gynaecologist online and get your health questions answered in just 5 minutes.
A week of itching, dryness, and burning with urination together often points to a vaginal or urinary infection, not simple irritation from travel.
Next Steps
Please stop the coconut oil and other home remedies, and see a gynaecologist soon for an examination and the right treatment.
Health Tips
Burning while urinating alongside vaginal symptoms needs to be checked promptly rather than managed at home.
