What is the cause of vulvar itching before and after menstruation?

Patient's question:

Previously, during the period before and after menstruation, I experienced itching in the external genital area and went to the hospital for a thorough examination. It was diagnosed as vaginitis, and the doctor prescribed Baofukang for two weeks. The itching around the vaginal opening has subsided, but the two areas of the clitoris still itch. Hello, should I continue to focus on using Baofukang?

Doctor's answer:

If the condition is not currently worsening, the patient does not need to apply medication vaginally and should focus on maintaining hygiene and cleanliness. For example, washing the external genital area with a product like Fuyanjie or solution can be effective. Avoid spicy and irritating foods. In addition to timely treatment, patients with vulvar itching should pay attention to maintaining deep sleep throughout their daily lives. Sufficient deep sleep is essential to help patients recover quickly from the condition.
