What causes external genital itching?

Patient's question:

The doctor has vulvar itching, with redness and itching on the inner side of the labia minora. After using Funing for seven days and Honghe wash liquid, the condition hasn't improved. Is there any topical ointment that can be used? What could be the cause?

Doctor's answer:

Based on the patient's previous description, the consideration is vaginitis. The medication did not work well, which suggests it may not be the correct treatment. It is recommended that the patient visit a public hospital's gynecology department for a follow-up examination, conduct a routine examination of vaginal discharge, and take medication targeting the specific pathogen after a definitive diagnosis is made. Pay attention to hygiene of the reproductive system in daily life. The patient is directly troubled by vulvar itching and should actively take treatment measures. Avoid hesitation in seeking medical attention. If vulvar itching does not improve with treatment, it is important to promptly switch to an alternative treatment plan.
