Chronic itch

2017-07-11 16:12:12
I've been having a chronic itch on my vulva for a year. Recently I went to a doctor who suggested I apply hydrocortisone (0.127%) once daily.. I've used it for two weeks now, and the itch has drastically reduced. Should I stop using it now or continue its use? Will the itch recur if I stop?
