Many women have experienced itching in the external genitalia, which is often caused by gynecological inflammations such as vulvitis. With timely treatment, it can be cured. Some women may also experience itching in the external genitalia after their menstrual period. What is the reason for itching in the external genitalia after menstruation like this?
After menstruation, itching in the external genitalia may indicate vaginal inflammation, such as fungal vaginitis caused by Candida albicans, which is mainly caused by increased vaginal sugar or increased vaginal acidity. It may also be caused by vulvitis, and in such cases, personal hygiene should be taken into account. It may also be caused by poor hygiene during menstruation, improper selection of protective pads, or failure to regularly clean the external genitalia.
In order to reduce the occurrence of external genital itching after menstruation, it is necessary to take good care of menstruation. During menstruation, it is especially important to pay attention to the cleanliness of the reproductive organs. At the same time, it is not advisable to take baths, undergo gynecological examinations, or have sexual intercourse during menstruation.
In addition to paying attention to daily hygiene during menstruation, choosing sanitary pads is also crucial. It is important to choose high-quality sanitary pads. It is recommended to choose sanitary pads that are made of cotton, soft, have good water absorption, and are free of perfume, and they should also be individually packaged. This type of sanitary pad is safer, and when using it, do not directly touch the surface of the sanitary pad with your hands to avoid bacterial invasion.
