Pain inside labia minora

The labia minora is an important part of the female vulva and has a great impact on the health of women's private parts. Many people wonder what causes tingling inside the labia minora. In fact, there are many diseases that can cause this symptom, such as mixed infection, vaginal secretion irritation, urine irritation, unclean sexual life or abuse of antibiotics, all of which can cause this problem!

1. Mixed infection

Due to multiple stimulations, mixed infections often occur, and the causative bacteria are often Staphylococcus, Streptococcus, and Escherichia coli.

2. Vaginal discharge stimulation

Due to increased vaginal secretions or stimulation from menstrual blood or menstrual pads, especially in cases of cervicitis and various vaginitis, the secretions increase and flow to the vulva, which can cause vulvitis to varying degrees.

3. Other reasons

1. Urine irritation

Diabetic patients are directly stimulated by sugary urine, patients with frequent urination are soaked in urine for a long time, patients with fecal fistula are stimulated by feces when they have diarrhea and loose stools, and intestinal pinworms.

2. Not paying attention to personal hygiene

Using public toilets or swimming in public swimming pools can also cause vaginitis, among which the more common ones are vaginitis caused by Trichomonas vaginalis and Candida albicans. In addition, if women do not pay attention to menstrual hygiene, do not change their underwear frequently, and do not strictly disinfect their underwear, it may also cause vaginitis.

3. Unclean sexual life

Unclean sexual life is one of the causes of vaginitis. Among them, candidal vaginitis and trichomoniasis vaginitis are sexually transmitted diseases, both of which can be transmitted through sexual intercourse. This is why when a woman is diagnosed with vaginitis, the doctor recommends that her husband be treated together.

4. Frequently flush the vagina with lotion

Some women like to use wash liquid to clean the vulva or vagina, thinking that this can keep the vulva clean. However, they do not know that frequent use of wash liquid will disrupt the acid-base balance of the vagina, thereby increasing the chance of vaginitis infection.

5. Misuse of antibiotics

The misuse of antibiotics is also a major cause of vaginitis. This is because while antibiotics kill pathogenic bacteria, they also inhibit the growth of some beneficial bacteria in the female body, which gives harmful bacteria an opportunity to take advantage of and cause vaginitis, the most common of which is candidal vaginitis.

6. Unclean sanitary products

Women can also easily develop vaginitis if they use unclean or poorly disinfected sanitary products. For example, dirty toilet paper, sanitary napkins, and panty liners.
