Female external genital itching is often treated by local administration. Women with external genital itching often experience worsening symptoms during menstruation, which is a special stage. Improper use of medication may affect normal menstruation. So, can external genital itching be treated with medication during menstruation?
1. During menstruation, women may experience excessive stimulation of the external genitalia due to increased menstrual blood and secretions. If personal hygiene is not taken care of during this period, obvious itching symptoms may often occur in the external genitalia. By frequently changing sanitary pads and underwear, and promptly washing the external genitalia with warm water, external itching and discomfort can be effectively alleviated and removed.
2. If a woman experiences severe itching in the external genitalia during her menstrual period, she can also go to the gynecology department of the hospital for examination. Under the guidance of a doctor, she can first use a specialized detergent to clean the external genitalia, but vaginal lavage cannot be performed during this period. Anti inflammatory ointments that can remove itching symptoms can also be used for local application treatment.
3. Women must take good personal hygiene care during their menstrual period. Due to gynecological inflammation causing severe itching in the external genitalia, it is necessary to go to the hospital for targeted examinations after menstruation to determine the specific cause of the severe itching and receive targeted treatment. Non menstrual treatment for genital itching can be thoroughly treated through vaginal irrigation, medication suppositories, and a combination of oral medication.
