&lt;h1&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #ff99cc;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Vaginal Itching&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h1&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;There are various reasons why your vagina might itch, such as exposure to skin irritants, a yeast infection, or stress. Identifying the root cause is essential for finding relief. It is important to note that while vaginal itching can sometimes indicate serious conditions like &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;text-decoration: underline;&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.pulse-clinic.com/sexually-transmitted-diseases-stds-in-thailand&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;sexually transmitted infections (STIs)&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;or, rarely, vulvar cancer, it&#39;s often caused by less concerning factors such as irritating substances or hormonal fluctuations.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #ff99cc;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Book a consultation with us&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt; if you have concerns about low testosterone. Natural testosterone levels tend to decline with age and could indicate underlying conditions that require attention.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h3&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;h3&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #ff99cc;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;1. Irritants&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Chemical irritants commonly found in everyday products that come into contact with the vagina and vulva can trigger an allergic reaction known as contact dermatitis. These include substances like alcohol, dyes, and fragrances.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;If an irritant is responsible, you may experience itching, redness, and soreness in your vulva and vagina. Here are some examples of products that often contain such irritants include:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot; aria-level=&quot;1&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Soaps, shower gels, and bubble baths&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot; aria-level=&quot;1&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Feminine sprays&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot; aria-level=&quot;1&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Douches&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot; aria-level=&quot;1&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Topical contraceptives like spermicide and Phexxi&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot; aria-level=&quot;1&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Creams, lotions, and ointments&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot; aria-level=&quot;1&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Detergents&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot; aria-level=&quot;1&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Fabric softeners&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot; aria-level=&quot;1&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Scented toilet paper&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot; aria-level=&quot;1&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Scented pads and liners&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;If you have incontinence, urine can also contribute to itching and irritation.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h3&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #ff99cc;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;2. Skin Conditions&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Certain skin conditions, such as eczema and psoriasis, can lead to redness and itching in the genital area.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot; aria-level=&quot;1&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #ff99cc;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Eczema&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;, or atopic dermatitis, manifests as a rash that typically affects individuals with asthma or allergies. The rash appears red, and itchy and may have a scaly texture. It can extend to the vulva in some cases.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot; aria-level=&quot;1&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #ff99cc;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Psoriasis &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;is another prevalent skin condition characterized by scaly, itchy, red patches that commonly develop on the scalp and joints. Periodically, these symptoms can also appear on the vulva.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h3&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;h3&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;text-decoration: underline;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.pulse-clinic.com/yeast-infection-symptoms-diagnosis-and-treatment&quot;&gt;3. Yeast Infection&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;The overgrowth of yeast in the vagina can cause bothersome symptoms such as itching, burning, and thick, whitish discharge that may or may not have a yeasty odor, reminiscent of fresh sourdough bread.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;If you&#39;ve recently taken antibiotics, they may be the culprit, as they can disrupt the balance of good bacteria that normally keep yeast in check. Other factors that can contribute to yeast infections include pregnancy, stress, uncontrolled diabetes, and hormonal fluctuations before menstruation.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h3&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;h3&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #ff99cc;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;4. Bacterial Vaginosis (BV)&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;text-decoration: underline;&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.pulse-clinic.com/bacterial-vaginosis&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Bacterial Vaginosis (BV)&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;is similar to a yeast infection, BV results from an imbalance between naturally occurring good and bad bacteria in the vagina.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;BV doesn&#39;t always present symptoms. When symptoms do occur, they often include vaginal itching and an unusual discharge with a fishy odor. The discharge may appear thin, dull gray or white, and sometimes foamy.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h3&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;https://cms.pulse-clinic.com/Files/Charlie/%E0%B8%84%E0%B8%B1%E0%B8%99%E0%B8%88%E0%B8%B4%E0%B9%8B%E0%B8%A1/C4_ENG.jpg&quot; width=&quot;750&quot; height=&quot;563&quot; style=&quot;display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;&quot; /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h3&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #ff99cc;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;5. STIs (Sexually Transmitted Infections)&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Several sexually transmitted infections (STIs) can lead to vaginal itching, such as:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li aria-level=&quot;1&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;text-decoration: underline;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.pulse-clinic.com/chlamydia&quot;&gt;Chlamydia&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li aria-level=&quot;1&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;text-decoration: underline;&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.pulse-clinic.com/hpv-wart-treatment-bangkok&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;Genital warts&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li aria-level=&quot;1&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;text-decoration: underline;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.pulse-clinic.com/gonorrhea&quot;&gt;Gonorrhea&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li aria-level=&quot;1&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;text-decoration: underline;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.pulse-clinic.com/herpes-genitalia&quot;&gt;Genital herpes&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li aria-level=&quot;1&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;text-decoration: underline;&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.pulse-clinic.com/trichomoniasis&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;Trichomoniasis&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;These STIs may also present with additional symptoms such as abnormal vaginal discharge, painful urination, and sores in the genital area.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h3&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;https://cms.pulse-clinic.com/Files/Charlie/%E0%B8%84%E0%B8%B1%E0%B8%99%E0%B8%88%E0%B8%B4%E0%B9%8B%E0%B8%A1/Menopause.jpg&quot; width=&quot;750&quot; height=&quot;563&quot; style=&quot;display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;&quot; /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h3&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #ff99cc;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;6. Menopause&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;The decrease in estrogen levels during perimenopause and menopause heightens the likelihood of experiencing vaginal itching.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;This reduction in estrogen leads to thinning, dryness, and decreased elasticity of the vulvar and vaginal tissues. Vaginal dryness can cause itching and irritation, and may also make sexual intercourse painful and result in post-coital bleeding.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h3&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;https://cms.pulse-clinic.com/Files/Charlie/%E0%B8%84%E0%B8%B1%E0%B8%99%E0%B8%88%E0%B8%B4%E0%B9%8B%E0%B8%A1/Stress.jpg&quot; width=&quot;750&quot; height=&quot;563&quot; style=&quot;display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;&quot; /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h3&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #ff99cc;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;7. Stress&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;Both physical and emotional stress can lead to vaginal itching and irritation. This can happen when stress compromises your immune system, making you more susceptible to infections that provoke itching. Additionally, elevated levels of the stress hormone cortisol, which occurs during stressful periods, have been observed in animal studies to impact vaginal health and raise the likelihood of &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.pulse-clinic.com.sg/vaginal-infection&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;vaginal infections&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h3&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;https://cms.pulse-clinic.com/Files/Charlie/%E0%B8%84%E0%B8%B1%E0%B8%99%E0%B8%88%E0%B8%B4%E0%B9%8B%E0%B8%A1/Vulva_cancer.jpg&quot; width=&quot;750&quot; height=&quot;563&quot; style=&quot;display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;&quot; /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h3&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #ff99cc;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;8. Vulva Cancer&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Vaginal itching might indicate vulvar cancer, although it&#39;s important to note that vulvar cancer is rare and other conditions are more likely to be the cause.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Vulvar cancer can manifest as persistent vaginal itching that does not improve over time. It may also lead to skin alterations on the vulva, such as changes in color or thickening of the skin. Additional symptoms can include abnormal bleeding or discharge not related to menstruation, as well as the presence of lumps. Some individuals with vulvar cancer may not experience any symptoms at all.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Regular gynecological examinations conducted annually can enhance early detection and improve overall outcomes.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
