Why does the vulva itch at night?

Women usually only know they have gynecological diseases when they feel discomfort in a certain part of their body. Many girls only realize they have gynecological diseases when they feel itchy down there. When women find out they have gynecological diseases, they are too embarrassed to tell others and go to the pharmacy to buy medicine for treatment privately, but the treatment results are often not satisfactory. Next, I will introduce to you why the vulva itches at night.

1. Why does female vulvar itching get worse at night?

1. Wearing non-breathable underwear that does not absorb sweat will make the vulva too moist for a long time and cause vulva itching.

2. If the vulvar skin is irritated by menstrual blood, or urine, feces, sweat stains, etc. that are not wiped clean, it will cause chronic inflammation and itching of the vulvar skin.

3. Not paying attention to personal hygiene and local cleaning of the vulva, sebum, sweat, menstruation, vaginal secretions, and even urine and feces, long-term stimulation of the vulva can cause vulvar itching.

4. Women who sit in the office for a long time and do not move often are very likely to experience symptoms of vulva itching. Sitting on a chair for a long time without moving will make the vulva stuffy, especially on chairs with very soft cushions.

5. In many cases, vulvar itching caused by inflammation is due to vaginitis. There are many types of vaginitis, including candidal vaginitis, Trichomonas vaginitis, etc. Inflammation of the uterus, cervix, and urethra can also cause vulva itching.

2. What to do if female vulva itching occurs?

1. Get enough sleep, relax, and do moderate exercise.

2. Pay attention to menstrual hygiene and keep the vulva clean and dry.

3. Actively treat medical diseases such as diabetes, kidney disease, liver disease, etc. that can cause or aggravate skin itching.

4. It is recommended to wash newly bought underwear before wearing to prevent skin allergies caused by chemical residues in the clothing manufacturing process.

5. 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.

6. In addition to paying attention to lifestyle habits, female vulvar itching can also be treated through traditional Chinese medicine.

(1) Wet and itchy scrotum. Use bran charcoal and perilla leaves, grind them into powder and apply it to the affected area.

(2) Vulvar swelling, pain and itching. Use lotus leaves, duckweed and cnidium monnieri in equal parts, decoct them in water and wash with the water every day.

(3) Scrotal sweating and itching. Use dragon bones and oysters, grind them into fine powder, and apply it to the affected area.

(4) Vulvar itching and sores. Use one liang of purple tip flowers and half a liang of pepper, boil them into a warm water and wash the affected area. The disease will heal after several times.

7. 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 can deplete yin fluid and aggravate dry skin. Fishy and wind-inducing foods such as mutton and seafood will increase skin itching, so it is recommended to eat less or not eat them.
