Hello,
I am Dr. Romain Rajan, General Physician.
I understand your concern. Vaginal itching without discharge or rash can happen due to:
Mild fungal/yeast infection (most common).
Irritation or dryness from soaps, scented washes, pads, or tight clothing.
Allergic reaction to detergent or undergarments.
Sometimes hormonal changes or minor skin conditions.
General advice:
Keep the area clean and dry, avoid tight or synthetic undergarments.
Wash with plain water or mild unscented soap (no harsh products).
Avoid scratching â it worsens irritation.
Cold water wash (as you are doing) can give temporary relief.
You may apply soothing external gels like aloe vera or calamine (not inside the vagina).
When to consult a doctor:
If itching continues beyond 5â7 days.
If you notice discharge, foul smell, burning urination, or pain.
If the itching worsens or disturbs sleep significantly.
Most likely it is a mild fungal or irritant cause, which usually settles with these simple measures. If persistent, a short course of antifungal cream/tablets prescribed by a doctor may be required.

Also you can wash the area with curd too ( not when medicine is applied but after 7 days of treatment, because this reduces the candidiasis in the long run
Since there's itching without discharge or rash, it may be due to dryness, mild fungal irritation, or local sensitivity due to soaps, tight clothes or hygiene products

Hey! Itching can be due to candidiasis, an infection caused due to fungus named Candida.
You can take Tab. Fluconazole 150mg stat. One dose is usually sufficient if the condition is not recurring.
Also, try to maintain hygiene by keeping the private area dry.
Do not use products having strong fragrances as it may disturb the pH of the area leading to infections.
Always dry the area using once a use towel/tissue and dispose.
Most probably it's Trichomonas vaginalis ...
Keep the area dry and clean
Wear loose undergarment
Wash with. Clean cold water
I would advise for metronidazole for 7 days
With clotrimazole cream for 7 days ...
Ony if culture not possible
