How to deal with vulvar itching at 39 weeks of pregnancy?

Patient's question:

I am a 34-year-old woman who doesn't usually have much going on, but after having sex with my boyfriend, I always feel uncomfortable in my private area. Not only is the color of my discharge abnormal, but the smell is also very unpleasant. This issue has been troubling me for a long time. Please advise: How should I deal with vulvar itching at 39 weeks of pregnancy?

Doctor's answer:

Since you are 39 weeks pregnant and may go into labor at any time, it is recommended that you use medication. Many herbs that clear heat, detoxify, kill parasites, reduce swelling, and relieve pain can be used for external washing. It is essential to maintain personal hygiene, change your underwear and clothes daily, and expose them to sunlight. Then, the patient needs to follow a regular diet, maintain a consistent sleep schedule, regulate physical and mental health, and pay attention to maintaining a positive mood in daily life. It is also important to eat light, soft, and watery foods, drink plenty of water, and consume more vegetables and fruits.
