Vaginal itching often occurs in paroxysmal attacks, but can also be persistent, usually worsening at night. Unexplained vaginal itching usually only occurs in women of childbearing age or after menopause. What to do if you have vaginal itching?

1. Treat chronic inflammation of the reproductive tract, such as cervicitis, vaginitis and other diseases that easily cause excessive leucorrhea.

2. When cleaning the vulva every day, it is more appropriate to use a feminine care solution with a weak acid formula. It is best not to use clean water or soap to clean the vulva, and avoid scratching with your hands or instruments.

3. Eat more coarse grains, such as oats, brown rice, corn, pumpkin, whole wheat bread, etc., which can supplement B vitamins and strengthen the skin. Red dates, wolfberries, and various nuts have the effect of nourishing blood, nourishing yin, and nourishing the skin, so you can eat more of them appropriately. Spicy food will damage yin fluid and aggravate dry skin; fishy and wind-inducing foods such as lamb and seafood will increase skin itching, so it is recommended to eat less or not eat them.

4. Wear loose cotton or silk clothes to avoid friction between chemical fiber clothing and skin, and avoid irritation to the skin caused by static electricity from clothes.
