General issues
It has been 3-4 days today... i have been having
itching sensation in my labia/vulva
The more i try to itch it the more it irritates and the
more it itches. My last period was on the 4th. And
there is no discharge-clear urination. No frequent
urination either.
today the vulva felt really dry and i think i itched a
bit to rough and got cuts on the inside of the vulva.
i had been adviced to use candid b crean in the vulvar region.
Please guide me as to how i should apply. Just outside the labia or we can apply inside as well because most of the itching is inside the labia.
Other than that my friends are scaring me it could be some underlying issue.. please advice me
