Patient's question:
Main symptoms: Itching, vulvar itching. How should it be treated?Doctor's answer:
Vaginal itching is a symptom that can be caused by various factors. Local causes include specific infections (such as fungal vaginitis, trichomoniasis, pubic lice, scabies, pinworms), chronic vulvar dystrophy, drug allergies or chemical irritation, poor hygiene habits, and skin diseases. Patients with chronic conditions such as diabetes, jaundice, leukemia, vitamin A deficiency, and vitamin B deficiency also often experience vaginal itching. Sometimes, vaginal itching cannot be attributed to a clear local or systemic cause, and no changes can be observed in the vaginal area. This may be due to high mental stress or excessive fatigue.
