Why does a girl feel itchy down there?

External itching is a problem that many women will encounter, especially in the summer when the weather is hot and they sweat a lot. The genitals will show persistent or intermittent itching, which will have a certain impact on women's life and work. Not only will it affect your rest and sleep, but it will also be embarrassing and uncomfortable in public. So what exactly is vaginal itching? Let us explain it below.

Vulvar itching. Many women will experience this symptom when the weather is dry. It is often manifested as persistent or paroxysmal itching, and is often aggravated at night. The itching often occurs around the labia majora and minora and the clitoris, affecting sleep. Many women with vulvar itching scratch unconsciously after falling asleep, which may cause local skin ulcers or scratch marks, and make the vulvar skin red, swollen and infected.

1. Women who sit in the office for a long time and do not move often are very likely to experience symptoms of vulvar itching. Sitting on a chair for a long time without moving will make the vulva stuffy, especially on chairs with very soft cushions.

2. Non-breathable underwear does not absorb sweat, which will make the vulva too moist for a long time and cause vulva itching. In short, in addition to inflammatory diseases that cause vulvar itching, if women do not want to be troubled by itching every day, it is best to wear loose full-body underwear, walk around frequently when you have nothing to do, and avoid sitting for long periods of time.

3. In many cases, vulvar itching caused by inflammation is due to vaginitis. There are many types of vaginitis, including candidal vaginitis, Trichomonas vaginitis, etc. Inflammation of the uterus, cervix, and urethra can also cause vulva itching.

If the skin of a woman's vulva is not very clean, it will also irritate the vulva and make it itchy and unbearable. If the vulvar skin is irritated by menstrual blood, or urine, feces, sweat stains, etc. that are not wiped clean, it will cause chronic inflammation and itching of the vulvar skin.

The above article introduces some causes of vaginal itching, most of which are caused by gynecological diseases, such as vaginitis, adnexitis, pelvic inflammatory disease, endometritis, etc. These gynecological diseases can cause increased vaginal discharge and vaginal itching. Therefore, when vaginal itching occurs, it is best to have a detailed gynecological examination and receive treatment as soon as possible.
