What should I do if a pregnant woman has particularly itchy external genitalia?

Patient's question:

Female, 26 years old. I usually don't have any problems, but every time I have sex with my boyfriend, I 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 ask: How can pregnant women relieve external genital itching?

Doctor's answer:

The severe itching of the vulva in pregnant women is somewhat related to personal hygiene habits and diet. In your case, it is necessary to consider vaginitis or vulvitis caused by transmission. However, during pregnancy, it is not recommended to use medications indiscriminately. It is better to consult a doctor for a thorough examination to identify the root cause.
The patient should maintain a balanced diet, follow a regular sleep schedule, and regulate physical and mental health. In daily life, it is important to keep a positive mood, eat more light, soft, and easily digestible foods, drink plenty of water, and consume more vegetables and fruits.
