I want to know how to treat vulvar itching

Patient's question:

I have never had any gynecological diseases, nor have I engaged in any unclean sexual behavior. My menstruation has also been normal. Lately, I've been feeling a particularly itchy sensation in my external genital area. When I went to the hospital for a thorough examination, the doctor said there were no gynecological problems. What should I do?

Doctor's answer:

First, pay attention to the cleanliness and hygiene of the external genital area. There is no need to use soap to wash the external genital area; try to suppress scratching and rubbing the affected area; avoid spicy foods; pay attention to preventing depression and tension. If the symptoms still cannot be relieved, you should go to the hospital for a follow-up examination to identify the cause of the itching and treat the cause accordingly.
General treatment: Pay attention to menstrual hygiene and keep the external genital area clean and dry at all times. Avoid scratching, hot water bathing, and using soap. In addition to immediate treatment, patients with external genital itching also need to pay attention to maintaining a good mood in daily life, as a positive mood is very helpful for the complete recovery of the disease. I hope the above answers can help you. Thank you!
