Vaginal itching and odor are caused by gynecological inflammation. If left untreated, it will slowly develop into a series of other gynecological diseases. Treating it at that time will not only be time-consuming and troublesome, but also cost a lot of money. Therefore, you must go to the hospital for examination in time and actively seek treatment if any problems are found. The following is an explanation by a gynecologist from Jiangmen Mary Women's Hospital about the causes of vaginal itching and odor: 1. Trichomonas vaginitis: itching of the vulva and vagina, 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. 2. Fungal vaginitis: Fungal vaginitis may cause odor in the lower body. The most common symptom of this disease is vulvar itching. When the inflammation is severe, frequent urination, painful urination and pain may also occur. If the odor in the lower body is caused by typical candidal vaginitis, the leucorrhea may appear to be tofu dregs or curd-like. 3. Chronic cervicitis: Increased vaginal discharge is the most common symptom of cervicitis, and sometimes the only symptom of chronic cervicitis. Leucorrhea often manifests as pathological leucorrhea, such as viscosity and purulent. Sometimes the secretions may contain blood or a small amount of blood, and there may also be contact bleeding. Vulvar itching may be caused by irritation from leucorrhea. 4. Gonorrhea: A sexually transmitted disease characterized by purulent infection of the urogenital system, mainly characterized by increased vaginal discharge, which is purulent and has a foul odor.

It is very important to understand in advance what causes vaginal itching and odor.
