Patient's question:
I am still a high school student, and now the practice pressure is too great, so I live in the school dormitory to save time. But recently, I have been very annoyed and irritable because, for no known reason, my vulva is itchy. I haven't had any sexual activity with a male. I want to ask what are the possible reasons for vulvar itching?Doctor's answer:
Considering it may be vaginitis caused by a vaginal infection, it is recommended that you go to the hospital for a check-up to determine the underlying cause. Identifying the root cause is important. Additionally, due to insufficient attention to personal hygiene in the private area, the skin in the external genital region is exposed to menstrual blood, vaginal discharge, and even urine, feces, and sweat, leading to chronic inflammation of the local skin and ultimately causing vulvar itching.Furthermore, during the treatment of vulvar itching, the patient's dietary condition and care are also crucial. The patient must ensure adequate vitamin intake, prevent digestive issues, and maintain a light diet to avoid unnecessary harm.
