Answer
We get lots of questions similar to this.
In general, if you have any symptoms this is something to talk to your doctor about.
i-Base can provide information but we can’t diagnose symptoms.
Although some symptoms can be side effects, sometimes they are related to other things.
Odimune includes an ARV called efavirenz, and this can make you more anxious and worried. This link has more information on efavirenz:

No ARVs have side effects that include vagina pain so this sounds like something to ask your doctor about.

Hi Naeemah, Tenemin does not cause vaginal burning. This has not been caused by treatment. Have you experienced these symptoms before? how long did the stomach cramps last? and did you experience them again?

Hi, PrEP does not cause vaginal burning. Is this a new sensation? and has anything else changed? e.g., different underwear/body wash? If this feeling continues you should speak with your doctor/pharmacist about how to address this.
