The area extends about 1-1.5" away from the vulva in all directions. There is some hair loss and irritation further up her belly, and around her anus, but I'm pretty sure that's from the chewing she's doing. She's had several bacterial vaginal infections (staph). No UTIs that we've been able to detect. Very minor presence of fungus showed up on a swab.
If it was an allergy would we expect to see irritation elsewhere? She occasionally gets some dermatitis between her toes but is otherwise fine apparently...
