When u r having vaginally itching it s good to get it checked cos when ur doc sees the site she will be able to guess correctly what s the organism that s infecting u cos each onend will present differently.well for now
1.use warm water to clean and make sure u mop it dry
2.do not use disinfectants like set to launch or soaps
3. You can try a perineal wash that will maintain thevaginal ph
4.need to check you blood sugar
If not subsiding with this u will need a local antibiotic treatment with vaginal suppositories
