Doctor's answer:

Vaginal itching is a symptom caused by various different inflammations of the external genitalia, but it can also occur in individuals with completely normal external genitalia. Poor hygiene habits, other skin inflammations, trauma, and systemic causes can all contribute to it. It is recommended to pay attention to menstrual hygiene, maintain cleanliness and dryness of the external genitalia, and avoid scratching. Do not use hot water for washing or soaps.
