What is vulvar itching?

Vulvar itching is a disease that makes women extremely speechless. Whether it occurs during the day, it makes women feel helpless. They feel restless but are embarrassed to scratch. This will have an impact on women's mood and life. So what is vulvar itching?

Vulvar itching often worsens at night, and itching often occurs around the labia majora and minora and the clitoris, affecting sleep. Due to unconscious scratching after falling asleep, local skin ulcers or scratch marks may occur, causing redness, swelling, and infection of the external skin.
