What medications can be used to treat vulvar itching?

Patient's question:

How to deal with vulvar itching? Wash every day, but there isn't much discharge. My period started on January 7th.

Doctor's answer:

There are two reasons that can cause external genital itching: one is simple vulvitis, and the other is vaginitis. If the discharge is not excessive, you can gently clean the external genital area and apply medication. It is recommended to wear loose cotton underwear during the day. If the discharge is abundant, a routine examination of the discharge is necessary. Based on the results, medication can be applied to the vagina for treatment. Patients with external genital itching can, in addition to symptomatic treatment, use dietary therapy as a supplementary treatment in daily life. It is important to maintain a balanced diet in daily eating habits.
