For context im 26 AFAB. For the past few months around my period I feel urethral stinging which makes me feel as if i need to urinate. Urination doesnt sting or burn and doesnt make any difference to how i feel. I cleared a ureaplasma infection mid last year, and also stopped taking my birth control around then too. I never attended any pelvic floor therapy. I done a microbiome test and all is good with a crispatus dominant biome, though i did have an external vaginal yeast infection which I cleared with fluconazole a few days ago.

Can this be a tight pelvic floor even though i only feel it at my period? I dont feel it any other time and don't feel any other symptoms to my knowledge. Sex is not painful. I drink plenty of water so dehydration is not a factor.

The burning feeling is made worse when im sitting down on a chair. If i sit on a toilet the burning eases off until I stand again.

Its been 4 hours since the feeling started and its reduced a bit. Ive taken antihistamine and cocodamol in this time frame.
