Patient's question:
Patient: Female, 21 years old, previously in good health.1. Had sexual intercourse at the beginning of the month; a few days before the last day of her menstrual period, she experienced vulvar itching. At first, there were no abnormalities in her vaginal discharge. After using ABC for three days for cleaning, she again had purulent vaginal discharge, which was slightly yellow. After stopping its use, she took some anti-inflammatory medication, and the itching subsided somewhat, but she still had creamy vaginal discharge and some abdominal discomfort.
Doctor's answer:
Vaginal itching is a symptom that can be caused by various factors. Local causes include specific infections (such as fungal vaginitis, trichomoniasis, diabetes, pubic lice, scabies, pinworms), chronic vulvar dystrophy, drug allergies or chemical irritation, poor hygiene habits, and skin diseases. It is recommended that you visit a hospital promptly for a detailed examination. After diagnosis, symptomatic treatment should be administered.
