Vaginal itching
My vagina is itching continously. It's not stopped at all. It's hurting me and it burns. I have been using v wash for a while now. Are they side effects? Or can it be a fungal infection?

I feel the cause of itching in your case is use of V wash.
Vagina is a self cleaning organ. It should be cleaned with water (and soft soap). The more we try to sanitize it, the more we interfere with its pH and its natural flora.
So just clean it with water and soft soap, avoid synthetic panties .
For few days you may take Tab Cetrizine , one at night.
