5 REASONS WHY YOUR VAGINA ITCHES (LADIES ONLY)


Most ladies have itchy vaginas and funny enough, they don’t know the cause. An itchy vagina is downright worrisome and very uncomfortable.

The following are the causes of an itchy vagina,

YEAST INFECTION: The most common cause of itchy vagina is yeast infection. When the vagina loses acidity, yeast can build up on the vulva and this would lead to an infection. A lady with a yeast infectionwould experience extreme itchiness and odourless thick white discharge from the vagina.


IRRITATION/ALLERGIES: Discontinue the usage of bathing soaps or feminine sprays that you are allergic to you. Constantly using a soap that you are allergic to in washing your vagina could cause irritation and ultimately lead to itching.


STIs: Sexually transmitted infections can cause itching of the vagina. “Trichomonas vaginalis” is an example of a parasite that is sexually transmitted and it causes vagina itch.


SHAVING PROBLEMS: Shaving your pubic hair makes the vagina very attractive. However, when the hair starts growing again, you might experience itch on the vagina. If you are always experiencing this problem, either use a shaving cream or use a scissors as against a shaving stick.


MENOPAUSE: Attaining menopause reduces your estrogen level and such a reduction makes the mucosal lining of the vagina thin thereby leading to itch in your vagina.


If you are experiencing vagina itch, kindly visit the nearest hospital for treatment.......thanks.
