The cause of vulvar pruritus is a conscious symptom caused by various vulvar lesions. It is a common symptom of many skin diseases, not a specific disease. However, it can also occur in people with completely normal vulva. The term pruritus is limited to itchy skin without primary skin lesions. Chinese medicine calls it "itchy wind". This disease is generally divided into two categories: localized and systemic. When the itching is severe, the patient is often restless, which affects his life and work. Vulvar pruritus is more common.

Vulvar itching is mostly located on the clitoris and labia minora. It can also affect the labia majora, perineum and even perianal skin lesions. It is often paroxysmal or continuous, and is usually aggravated at night. Unexplained vulvar itching generally only occurs in women of childbearing age or after menopause, and often affects the entire vulva, but may also be limited to a certain part or one side of the vulva. Although the itching is very severe and even unbearable, the local skin and mucous membranes appear normal, or there are only scratches due to excessive scratching. The main symptom is the presence of nodules in the vulva, often accompanied by pain and itching. Most patients first have long-term vulvar itching, and many years later, local papules, nodules or small ulcers appear, which do not heal for a long time. Some patients are accompanied by vulvar leukoplakia. When the tumor is adjacent to or invades the urethra, frequent urination, painful urination, burning sensation during urination and difficulty urinating may occur.
