Vaginal Itching problem
I am facing terrible itching in my vaginal since last 3 years. I have been to various hospitals which have big names, but have found no solution. I am a patient of ulcerative colitis. But the burning and itching in my vaginal opening is unbearable. If somebody out there can help.. please help. I will be highly grateful to anyone with any kind of help
Would be good to see you.....the natural flora of your vaginally is disrupted hence this is happening....take probiotics.....avoid using harsh chemicals for vaginally washing and excessive cleaning of genitalia to be avoided....take cervical cancer vaccine.....better take out time to come and show....

I can understand that you must be feeling very distressed. Cause of vaginal itching can be due to infection. As you are suffering from ulcerative Colitis, your doctors might have given you steroids to control the problem. That itself indirectly can alter vaginal PH and cause recurring infection.
Next Steps
Along with vaginal medication for local application, go for Vaginal probiotics. Get yourself tested for diabetes.
Health Tips
Whenever you feel like you are starting with itching, wear loose clothes, cotton under garments.
