What is the problem with diabetic vulvar itching?

Patient's question:

I have diabetes, and the itching is mainly in the pubic hair area and clitoris. The discharge is normal, and my inner thighs are also extremely itchy, but there are no strange growths, just itching. It has been about a month.

Doctor's answer:

Previously, the patient had diabetes, and now they are experiencing vulvar itching. It is possible that the patient may have developed vulvitis. It is recommended that the patient use povidone-iodine disinfectant to sterilize the vulva, and then apply clotrimazole cream locally. It is estimated that it may take about a week to heal on its own. In addition to active treatment, patients with vulvar itching should pay attention to maintaining deep sleep in their daily lives. Sufficient deep sleep can help the patient recover more quickly from the condition.
