Is it a gynecological disease if the lower body itches?

Patient's question:

Six months ago, I noticed that my legs were itchy. I thought it would go away after some time, but it hasn't. The strange thing is that it doesn't itch during my period, but it's itchy again this time. What specific gynecological disease does this have?

Doctor's answer:

Your condition may be vulvitis, which is primarily caused by a fungal infection. It is necessary for you to go to the hospital for a thorough examination. It is recommended that you visit the hospital for a check-up, and after diagnosis, you can use potassium permanganate solution at a 1:5000 dilution to bathe your vulva. At the same time, you should take Norfloxacin orally for treatment. Additionally, you should pay attention to vulvar hygiene, wear loose cotton underwear, and reduce the intake of spicy foods that may affect your condition. Gynecological diseases can be very serious, so it is recommended that patients seek timely treatment. It is hoped that patients can follow their doctor's advice for symptomatic treatment.
