The term “auntie” generally refers to a woman’s menstrual period. When vulvar itching occurs after menstruation, the cause of the itching needs to be clarified, and then vulvar cleansing or appropriate examination and treatment should be carried out.
If the sanitary napkin used during menstruation is not breathable, or if the sanitary napkin is not changed in time during menstruation, resulting in stimulation of the vulva by menstrual blood and secretions, itching may occur, and the vulva can be cleansed after menstruation to keep the area dry and under observation.
If, in addition to vulvar itching, there is also an increase in vaginal discharge, abnormal color, discharge odor, etc., it may be caused by vaginitis. Patients need to go to the hospital for routine examination of leukorrhea to clarify the type of vaginitis, and then choose the corresponding medication under the guidance of the doctor.
If it is bacterial vaginosis or trichomonas vaginitis, oral metronidazole and so on can play the role of anti-inflammatory and anti-infection, but it may be accompanied by nausea, vomiting, rash and other side effects. In case of vulvovaginal pseudomycosis, fluconazole can be taken orally to fight against fungal infection, but may be accompanied by nausea, rash, dizziness and other adverse effects.
There may be other causes of vulvar itching after menstruation, so it is recommended to consult a doctor, complete the relevant examinations, and follow the doctor’s instructions for targeted treatment. The above medications should be used under the supervision of a doctor.
