What tests should be done for the treatment of vulvar itching?

Patient's question:

Doctor, recently after using a certain brand of sanitary pad, I have been experiencing severe itching in the external genital area. I don't know if it's an allergy or something else. Could you please tell me what tests are needed for the treatment of vulvar itching?

Doctor's answer:

Based on your condition, it is considered to be a vaginal inflammation, and it is necessary to conduct a routine vaginal discharge test to identify the type of vaginal infection for proper treatment. It is important to maintain local cleanliness and dryness, avoid pulling with your hands, and strictly prohibit sexual activity during treatment. Change underwear frequently. If you are satisfied with my response, please rate it. Thank you.
There are several treatment methods for vulvar itching, but since the symptoms vary among patients, the diagnostic approach also differs. Therefore, it is necessary for patients to seek a prompt diagnosis to receive targeted treatment.
