Hi,
Thanks for posting in HCM.
I understand your concern.
Symptoms of vaginal itching could be caused due to yeast infection or due to associated vaginal dryness.
Kindly do the following to overcome this.
1. Clean the area with mild antiseptic solution like Savlon twice daily.
2. After drying, apply Clotrimazole cream thrice daily.
3. Take Tablet. Levocetirizine once a day to overcome itching.
4. Apply moisturizer cream or lotion at bedtime.
5. Wear loose fitting undergarments to avoid friction and provide proper ventilation.
Take care of your personal hygiene by using medicated soap while taking bath.
Gradually, your symptoms should subside and be back to normal.
Hope the information provided would be helpful.
All the best.
