Is persistent itching in the lower body a gynecological disease?

Patient's question:

Since having my second child, during the postpartum period, my legs started to ache. After the postpartum period, even though I cleaned them daily, it didn't help much. The itching between my legs was especially severe, making me feel itchy to the bone. I always wanted to scratch it with my hands but couldn't. Is the constant itching between my legs a gynecological disease?

Doctor's answer:

It's not normal to have such severe itching between the legs. It is likely a gynecological inflammation. There are several gynecological inflammations that can cause pain between the legs, such as vulvitis, cervicitis, vaginitis, and pelvic inflammatory disease, among others. It is recommended that you, in addition to cleaning, promptly go to the hospital for relevant examinations. Based on the examination results, timely symptomatic treatment should be administered. Pay attention to preventing colds and avoid spicy and irritating foods in daily life.
