How to Soothe Feminine Itching

Genital itching is a condition which can be caused by a sexually transmitted disease or simply by the presence of an irritant around the vagina. Feminine itching can be an extremely unpleasant sensation; however there are several home remedies which you can implement to attempt to soothe the itch.

Instructions

• 1

  Refrain from using products such as douches or feminine sprays which alter the pH levels of the vagina and can lead to itching.

• 2

  Avoid tight clothing which causes excess friction against the vagina. Loose clothes will prevent friction and itching.

• 3

  Dry off completely after bathing or engaging in recreational swimming. Failure to do so can lead to infections which can cause itching.

• 4

  Avoid unprotected sex with individuals who could potentially have a sexually transmitted disease. Many sexually transmitted diseases will cause genital itching.

  Consult with your gynecologist if itching persists. Your gynecologist can prescribe a cream or pills which can fight the infections that are causing the itch.
