Vulvar itching is a common and non-negligible symptom in women. It is caused by various vulvar lesions, but it can also occur in those with completely normal vulva. When the itching worsens, patients are often restless, which affects their lives and work. Experts say that vulvar itching is mostly located in the clitoris and labia minora. It can also affect the labia majora, perineum and even perianal skin lesions. Long-term scratching can cause scratches, blood scabs or secondary folliculitis. Vulvar pruritus often occurs in paroxysmal attacks or can be continuous. It usually worsens at night. Unexplained vulvar itching generally only occurs in women of childbearing age or postmenopausal women, and often affects the entire vulva, but it may also be limited to a certain part or one side of the vulva, but the local skin and mucous membranes appear normal, or there are only scratches due to excessive scratching.

The main hazards of vulvar itching:

1. It can cause other inflammations: If you do not actively seek treatment when you find symptoms of vulvitis, it can also be secondary to other local or systemic diseases, such as cervicitis, vaginitis, cervical cancer, etc. Due to the stimulation of increased secretions, or excessive and prolonged menstrual blood and lochia, it can cause varying degrees of inflammation.

2. Impact on pregnancy: In patients with severe vulvitis, a large number of white blood cells in the sexual secretions can phagocytose sperm, consume the energy substances in the semen, reduce sperm motility, shorten the survival time of sperm, and reduce the pregnancy rate. It is recommended to get pregnant after the inflammation is cured.

3. Possibility of canceration: When suffering from acute vulvitis, sexual intercourse not only aggravates the patient's pain, but also promotes the spread of inflammation and causes secondary infection. Direct or indirect contact between skin and skin, mucosa and mucosa can lead to sexually transmitted diseases such as condyloma acuminatum, genital herpes, gonorrhea, syphilis, chancroid, trichomoniasis, fungal infection, etc. For stubborn vulvar inflammation that cannot be cured for a long time, you should be highly alert to the possibility of vulvar cancer. According to statistics, 40% of vulvar cancer develops from vulvitis, mostly in middle-aged and elderly women, and the consequences of the disease are disastrous.

We must carefully understand the main hazards of vulvar itching, because vulvar itching is extremely harmful. If we want to avoid the harm caused by the disease, we need to correctly grasp the main hazards of vulvar itching. Only correct treatment can resist the occurrence of disease hazards. I hope everyone pays attention to this issue.
