Why is there itching only on the left labia without vaginitis?

Patient's question:

Please check carefully for no vaginitis, but only the left side of the external genitalia is itchy. It basically itches at night, and during the day, if you don't pay attention, it might itch. Sometimes it itches so much that it hurts and you have to scratch. The two areas are already whiter than the right side. I don't know how to treat it!

Doctor's answer:

The reasons for vulvar pain can include many external factors such as birth control pills, gonorrhea, non-gonococcal vaginal, candidal vulvovaginitis, trichomoniasis, and dermatitis. It is recommended to undergo relevant examinations to identify the cause of vulvar itching in a timely manner and avoid self-medication, which may worsen the condition. For severe cases of vaginitis, it is advisable to seek medical attention early and follow the doctor's advice for timely treatment. Avoid indiscriminate use of medication to prevent further aggravation of the condition.
