What causes urethral itching?

Some women feel itchy in their urethra after urinating or having sex. What is going on? The urethral opening is stimulated by urine every day. If the underwear is also wet, you will feel itching in the urethra or vulva. At this time, you should change your underwear to keep the vulva in a dry and breathable environment, and the symptoms will be relieved quickly. However, if the urethra is infected with bacteria, urethritis will develop, which will cause itching and require antibiotics to reduce inflammation.

Causes of urethral itching:

1. It is possible that the place you live in is too humid. It is recommended that you live on the sunny side, get more sun exposure, change your underwear frequently, and ensure the cleanliness of your urethra.

2. It is possible that your underwear is too tight and the friction causes urethral infection. You should go to the hospital for a check-up and ask the doctor to prescribe some anti-inflammatory drugs for you.

3. If the urethra itches due to too frequent sexual intercourse, you should stop having sex appropriately and go to the pharmacy to buy care solution. Pay attention to the hygiene of the urethral opening and wipe the urethral opening from front to back after going to the toilet to ensure it is clean.

4. It may be urethritis and viral infection. You should go to the hospital for examination and take some anti-inflammatory tablets. Do not eat spicy and irritating foods during the infection period as they will cause internal heat.

5. If the itching of the urethra is caused by drug allergy, you should stop taking the drug immediately and go to the hospital to see what the problem is. Do not delay the treatment.

6. The urethral opening should be kept clean and wiped clean after urination. Change underwear frequently, reduce sexual activity, and eat less spicy and irritating foods.
