Patient's question:
Medical history: I don't know why the external genital area always itches a week before my period. Using Jie'eryin doesn't relieve it, but it gets better after the period ends.: First follow-up question: Why is potassium permanganate more effective than Jie'eryin?
I pay attention to personal hygiene. I use Jie'eryin every few days.
Wearing tight pants might also be bad, right?
Could cervical erosion cause this symptom?
Doctor's answer:
First, pay attention to the cleanliness and hygiene of the external genital area. Do not wash the external genital area with soap; try to restrain from scratching and rubbing the affected area; avoid spicy foods; and pay attention to avoiding depression and tension. Vulvar itching is a symptom that can be caused by various reasons. Local causes include special infections (such as candidiasis, trichomoniasis, diabetes, pubic lice, scabies, pinworms), chronic vulvar dystrophy, drug allergies or chemical irritation, poor hygiene habits, and skin diseases, etc. It is recommended that you visit the hospital in time for a detailed examination to identify the cause and receive targeted treatment.
