What Causes Severe Itching In The Vagina?
I've been suffering with horrible vaginal itching. I'm haven't been sexually active in over 15 years so I don't think it's an STD. Also, there's no unusual discharge or smell. It's been so bad I've scratched myself bloody. I hope there is an easy answer for this. Thank you.

Hello,
Thank you for trusting HealthcareMagic for your health concern
Excessive itching you are experiencing is likely fungal or yeast infection. You can use clotromazole vaginal cream to relieve the itching. Use the cream.once daily for 7 days.Also, keep the area clean and dry. Wear loose fitting undergarments. Wash with mild soap and water. Avoid vaginal douching.
If itching persists after 7 days, follow up with your gynecologist.
