Why does the vulva itch during menstruation?

The menstrual period is a special period for women and is generally given special attention. However, there are various problems during menstruation, such as vulvar itching during menstruation, which is very uncomfortable for us female friends. Therefore, when we have problems during our menstrual period, we must actively seek appropriate solutions. We should do the same for vulvar itching.

In fact, private itching during menstruation is mostly related to the environment. Just as a warm and humid environment makes it easy for mushrooms to grow, the damp and stuffy environment in the genitals can also make bacteria multiply rapidly. During menstruation, the private parts secrete a lot and are mostly in a moist state. If the sanitary napkin you choose is thick and is not changed often, the airtight environment, coupled with the relatively low resistance during menstruation, allows bacteria to multiply rapidly and cause local inflammation or vulvar itching. If at this time, women can't help scratching, or rub their vagina vigorously, wash it vigorously with soap, or scald it with hot water, it will not only fail to eliminate the root cause of the disease, but will also worsen the symptoms and make the itching more severe.

The best way to deal with vulvar itching during menstruation is not to scratch, scald or rub, but to keep the body clean and dry, such as using sanitary napkins with dry mesh and good breathability, and washing the vulva frequently to avoid itching and bacterial growth. Also make sure to choose clean sanitary napkins and change them frequently, and wash your hands before changing them.

In order to avoid poor ventilation, you should also avoid wearing tight clothes during menstruation. If the private parts are covered too tightly, the body odor will not be easy to dissipate. If it accumulates for a long time, the embarrassing smell will become stronger and stronger. The long-term closed state can easily cause vulvar itching.

It should be noted that when itching occurs, all rough behaviors should be prohibited, such as scratching. The correct approach should be to wash the area with warm water, replace the dirty sanitary napkin, put on pure cotton and breathable underwear, and try to keep it clean and dry. Also, be careful to avoid drinking alcohol or eating spicy food during menstruation.

The above paragraphs will introduce the causes of vulvar itching during menstruation and how we should solve it. If our female friends feel that they have vulvar itching, they can learn from the above knowledge and solve it in time to avoid the condition from getting worse and affecting their life and work.
