Vaginal itching generally refers to itching of the vulva.

Generally, if you go to the hospital, you must ask about the medical history in detail, such as how long it has been, how much, how much leucorrhea, and the characteristics of leucorrhea have nothing to do with menstruation. Sometimes the stimulation of menstrual blood coupled with some allergies to sanitary napkins, some people are

Wrong practice one:

Some people mistakenly think that washing the vulva with water is the safest, and even use hot water after vaginal itching. They also say that it is very comfortable after washing. In fact, the vulva is invaded by bacteria just like the nose and nose, and the saliva also has a self-cleaning function. The oral cavity is not more dirty than the vagina, but why should we wipe our teeth sooner or later. By the same token, the private part should also carry out daily care. When cleaning the vulva every day, the female care solution with weak acid formula is more suitable. Violating common sense and believing that it will cause imbalance of the vulva flora, local inflammation, make itching worse, and even cause itching.

Some girls have itchy genitals, which is often difficult to bear, scratching is indecent, and it is very painful and troublesome. Genital itching is a symptom and the cause can be diverse.

Vulvar pruritus in young girls is mostly caused by inflammation and parasites. This is because their ovarian function is not yet perfect, the natural defense function of the vagina is poor, and they are susceptible to a variety of bacterial or nonbacterial vulvovaginitis and vulvar itching.

After entering puberty, the girl's vaginal epithelium thickens and vaginal folds appear. Endocrine secretions in the vagina are also acidic due to lactobacillus-rich bacilli, and their secretion increases. Natural defense functions are significantly enhanced. At this time, vulvar pruritus is usually caused by vulvovaginitis or vestibular glandular inflammation without talking about vulvar hygiene. If menstrual period is not paid attention to genital hygiene after menarche, menstrual blood and vaginal secretions can contaminate and stimulate the vulva and cause itching and even inflammation. The incidence of trichomoniasis vulvovaginitis increases significantly after puberty. This is because the acidic environment of the vagina caused by estrogen is a prerequisite for trichomoniasis, so trichomoniasis, which is rare in young girls, significantly increases after puberty. Trichomonas infections in girls are mainly caused by indirect channels such as public baths, bathtubs, bath towels, toilets, and contact with sick relatives. The incidence of vulvar pruritus caused by tsutsugamushi disease is lower in adolescent girls. The disease occurs because the female migrates to ovulate near the anus, which causes itching of the vulva, especially at night.

In addition, itching of the vulva may also be one of the symptoms of systemic diseases such as diabetes, jaundice, leukemia, and anemia. At this time, it can be accompanied by other corresponding clinical manifestations, and it is not difficult to find the primary disease after careful consultation and examination. Sometimes itching of the vulva can also become the first symptom of systemic diseases, such as mold infection of the vulva during diabetes; other skin diseases such as jock itch, scabies can also cause itching of the vulva.

There are also mental factors that cause vulvar itching, such as excessive focus on the genitals, and other people talking about vulvar itching or conditioned reflexes caused by scratching can cause itching.

In order to prevent the occurrence of diseases, young people should strengthen health education and sexual knowledge education so that young girls can understand and understand the various changes in their bodies after entering adolescence; pay attention to the hygiene in public places and prohibit the entry of patients with sexually transmitted diseases and trichomoniasis. In swimming pools and public baths, it is strictly forbidden to rent swimming underwear. Adhere to and develop good sanitary habits, such as changing underwear and cleaning the vulva every day, and pay attention to cleaning or using toilet paper before using the toilet. If vulvar pruritus symptoms occur, don't shun the disease and avoid medical treatment, and promptly diagnose and treat. Do not mess with your own medicine or be deceived by the quack and delay the illness.

Private line of defense

The female reproductive tract has two natural lines of defense, one is the "anatomical line of defense". There are five levels from the outside to the inside. The scope of Jieyin for women often involves the first and second levels.

First level

In the vulva, the labia majora on both sides close naturally, covering the vaginal opening, making it difficult for bacteria to enter.

Second level

In the vagina, due to the role of the pelvic floor muscles, the front and back walls of the vagina are tightly closed and the vaginal opening is closed to prevent external pollution. In the case of a pregnant woman, the postpartum vagina is loose and the defense function is weakened.

The other is the "physical line of defense."

on the one hand,

Under the influence of estrogen, vaginal epithelial cells continue to metabolize and become thicker, increasing their resistance to pathogens.

on the other hand,

Under the action of vaginal bacteria, the glycogen rich in vaginal epithelial cells can be broken down into lactic acid to maintain the normal acidic environment of the vagina and inhibit the pathogens that are adapted to reproduce in a weak alkaline environment. This is medically known as vaginal Self-purifying effect. It should be noted that when cleaning the vulva every day, a female care solution with a weak acid formula is more suitable. Therefore, although some bacteria are present in the vagina of healthy women, they usually do not cause inflammation.
