What is the reason for vulvar itching before menstruation?

Patient's question:

I am 28 years old. Before my period, I have had external itching. I have had a thorough examination, and after using medication for a week, there are still no signs of trichomoniasis or candidiasis. How should I treat it? Will it affect pregnancy?

Doctor's answer:

According to the situation you described above, if trichomoniasis and mold are ruled out, consider bacterial vaginosis or mixed vaginosis. It is recommended that you go to a regular hospital gynecology department for a follow-up examination and take medication according to the doctor's advice. You should treat the vaginosis well before trying to conceive. Pay attention to keeping the external genitalia clean and dry, wearing cotton underwear, boiling and sterilizing the underwear after washing, eating a light diet, avoiding spicy and irritating foods, maintaining a regular schedule, and avoiding overtime.
