I've been experiencing severe itching in my vaginal and anal area for about a month. I've taken antibiotics for both a yeast infection and BV, but neither stopped the itching. My primary care doctor suggested it might be an allergy and prescribed Zyrtec and steroid cream, which haven't helped much. The itching is more on the outside labial area than inside my vagina, and it also affects my anus. Who should I consult for this issue?

I am experiencing a burning sensation and sharp pain while passing stool, which I believe is due to constipation. The pain started yesterday and only occurs when I try to use the toilet. I am not taking any medications except azithromycin for a recent cold. I am 21 years old and have no other significant medical history. Additionally, I recently had my menstrual cycle, and after being intimate, I started seeing blood again. I am concerned about both issues and would like advice on how to manage them.
