Pregnancy query
I am using Candid-V6 vaginal tablets and Intiwash, which were prescribed by my gynecologist to treat an infection. I did not have any burning sensation before using these products, but I have started experiencing mild vaginal burning after using them. Is it possible that the burning sensation is a side effect of Intiwash or the Candid-V6 vaginal tablet?

Mild burning after starting Candid-V6 and Intiwash is a known, usually temporary irritation, not a sign your infection is worsening. Vaginal clotrimazole tablets commonly cause brief burning or itching as they work, and a new wash can irritate the area too until it adjusts.
Next Steps
Keep using both as your gynecologist prescribed, since stopping early can leave the infection untreated. If it stays mild, it should settle within a few days of starting the course.
Health Tips
Stop and consult your gynecologist sooner if the burning turns severe, or you notice swelling, a bad odor, or new discharge.
