If I have an itchy vagina all the time, is there something wrong with me?!


Question: If I have an itchy vagina all the time, is there something wrong with me!?
Ugh, I'm just not getting any answers! I will see a gynecologist for my yearly exam in a week!. I have no STDs, not sexually "active", I'm 19 years old, and I swear I keep it clean!. I also wear only cotton panties, and rarely ever wear thongs!. It's such an annoying feeling!. =(
Please help me out!.Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
Just because you experience an itch does not mean that you have an infection!. Do you discharge a lot!? if so, that could cause it!. Try keeping yourself as dry as possible and take cool showers as hot ones dry out your vagina!. Honestly, it could just be the way you are!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

When you wash do you get all the soap out!. You could be one of those people who have a yeast infection all the timeWww@Answer-Health@Com

I don't think anything is wrong!. Try to put some talcom powder down there and see if it stops!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

It's probably a yeast infection!. Go to the doctor to have it diagnosed, then use some Monistat to get rid of it!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

If you shaved recently, the new growing hair can itch something terrible!. Use hand lotion after bathing to stop the itching!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

it might be a yeast infection which is caused by fungus (not bacteria)
it could be the type of soap that you are using to wash with

i would use summers eve which is a anti-bacterial soap that is made specifically for vaginasWww@Answer-Health@Com

Talk to the doctor, you might be eating to much sugar and i know diabetes can cause this too!. Some different things like the soap you use, washing to much can cause it too!. bubble baths are a no no too!.Even hormone levels do it!. Just explain the things to doctor and let him or her check these out!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

if it's bothering you that much it's probably a yeast infection!. you can buy an over-the-counter medication for it, like vagisil!. if you're uncomfortable doing so- just wait to bring it up to your gynecologist next week!. until then, take a hot bath with 2 cups of vinegar in the water!. eat a lot of yogurt!. yogurts have lactobacteria (good bacteria) in them which fight off the bad bacteria in the vagina!.

that is also why you should not douche!!! douching kills mostly lactobacteria (good bacteria) you'll feel refreshed for a few hours than the bad bacteria will multiply because there is no good bacteria left to fight it off!. than you will douche again in search of that refreshing feeling!.!. its a never ending cycle that you don't want to get involved in!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

if its itchy and white its a yeast infection if its another color its a bacterial infection and u dont have 2 b sexually active to get a bacterial infection!!Www@Answer-Health@Com

This happens occasionally!. Could be the soap your using or probably an infection!. you can get creams or pessaries to use to get rid of it !. Try some vaseline to start and ask your Pharmacist for something ' If this doesn't work your doctor will give you a prescription!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
