Vaginal itching during pregnancy will it affect the baby?

Patient's question:

For the first three days, there was itching of the external genitalia. Previously, there was also itching of the external genitalia, but it was not treated. However, I am pregnant now, and will this affect the baby?

Doctor's answer:

External itching is caused by improper cleaning of the vulva, leading to bacterial infection. It can have a certain impact on the baby. It is recommended to seek treatment for external itching as soon as possible to avoid causing too much impact on the baby. Vulvar itching can bring significant harm to patients. Once symptoms are noticed, it is important to seek medical attention promptly and pay close attention to self-care. Eating more fruits and vegetables while avoiding foods is advisable.
