Could this be implantation if five days after ovulation and I am spotting a watery red liquid and I have an urge to urinate often but it is very little when I go accompanied by an itching?

That doesn't sound like pregnancy. Implantation a woman can have spotting but not watery red liquid. It's very light spotting and it's not accompanied by itching. It sounds to me like an infection. Any type of itching in the vaginal area isn't normal and you should go see a doctor asap to figure out what's going on down there. Go see a doctor immediately okay? Hope you'll be okay and take care of yourself. Sounds like you have thrush huni...you can get a cream & tablet to sort it out. Get your fella to use the cream too coz you can clear it up and he can give it back (blokes dont generally suffer from it but can carry the infection!) x

I don't the answer to this is Jock itch cuz...

Jock itch, or groin ringworm (tinea cruris), involves the skin of the groin and sometimes the upper thighs and buttocks. It is most often seen in adult men, but may also occur in women. Jock itch is not contagious. In many cases, the source of the infection is the patient�s own feet. Jock itch and athlete�s foot frequently occur together or in close succession.

Tinea cruris usually appears as scaly, ring-shaped patches with slightly raised borders that develop in the groin area and spread outward to one or both thighs, causing some redness and itching. The skin of the scrotum and penis are usually spared, a feature that helps distinguish this condition from some other skin diseases with similar symptoms.

Yea, so Jock itch has nothing to do with the scrotum, it's definitely something else.

Maybe because the scrotum is probably being irritated by something like very tight boxers or something.

ANSWER

There is a huge amount of information regarding your condition. I have also experienced the same and was originally told it was Jock Itch. After two weeks of treatment, I was told it was told it was Eczema. One suggestion, get off dairy and no coffee. Get plenty of rest and remove as much stress as you can. Seek an Alternative Medicine Doctor and ask him for an herbal remedy. If you would like more information, message me directly.
