Why do women's vaginas itch at night?

I believe everyone will feel embarrassed whenever someone mentions the vagina. Indeed, because the vagina is the most private part of our body. However, although it is a private part, it can also cause abnormal phenomena, such as vaginal itching. Many women have reported that their vagina is particularly itchy when they sleep at night. This phenomenon is definitely abnormal, so let me tell you what diseases cause vaginal itching at night!

Vaginal trichomoniasis: Women experience itching of the vulva and vagina, itching of the urethra, foamy leucorrhea, often accompanied by a special odor, and eczematous changes in the vulva after scratching. A vaginal smear test can be used to distinguish it from the above conditions.

Fungal vaginitis: Women may experience itching of the vulva, vagina, vaginal opening, urethral opening, vulvar flushing, and dregs-like leucorrhea with an odor. Scratching may cause eczematous changes of the vulvar dermatitis.

Drug allergy: Itching caused by taking some drugs in women with allergic constitution often occurs at the junction of the skin and mucous membrane of the vulva. In addition to local itching, it may be complicated by erosion and exudation. If you use drugs for vaginal washing or vaginal insertion, if allergic reactions and contact dermatitis occur, vulvar itching and urethral itching may also occur.

Unclean local skin: Some women use toilet paper improperly, and the skin of the vulva is soaked by menstrual blood, vaginal secretions, and even urine, feces and sweat, which causes chronic inflammation of the local skin, causing itching of the vulva and urethra.

It is recommended to go to the hospital for routine examination of leucorrhea. After clarifying the nature of the inflammation, symptomatic treatment should be given. Pay attention to the cleanliness of the vulva, wash the vulva with clean water, change underwear frequently, change sanitary napkins and panty liners in time during menstruation, and do not have sex during treatment to avoid cross infection.

I believe that after reading my description of the itching of the genitals at night, everyone has an understanding of this. However, you should not only see the cause, but also remember my advice. It is best to go to the hospital for a gynecological examination, pay more attention to personal hygiene care, change your underwear and wash your genitals every day. These are necessary tasks to restore health as soon as possible.
