Sudden unbearable itching in the lower body and abnormal vaginal discharge

Sudden unbearable itching and abnormal vaginal discharge in the lower body may be caused by diseases such as vaginitis, vulvitis or sexually transmitted infections. Common causes include bacterial, fungal or parasitic infections, as well as changes in hormone levels or allergic reactions. Treatments include medication, lifestyle adjustments and medical examinations.

1. Bacterial vaginosis

Bacterial vaginosis is a common gynecological disease, mainly caused by an imbalance of vaginal flora. Symptoms include increased vaginal discharge, odor, and itching. Treatment usually uses antibiotics such as metronidazole or clindamycin. At the same time, avoid using irritating washes and keep the vulva clean and dry.

2. Fungal infection (such as candidal vaginitis)

Vaginitis with candidal origin is caused by an overgrowth of fungi. Common symptoms include a dandruff-like discharge, vulvar itching, and burning. Treatment is with antifungal medications, such as clotrimazole suppositories or fluconazole oral tablets. Reducing sugar intake and wearing cotton underwear can help prevent recurrences.

3. Trichomonas vaginitis

Trichomonas vaginitis is caused by a parasitic infection. Symptoms include yellow-green, frothy vaginal discharge, itching, and a foul odor. Treatment is usually with metronidazole or tinidazole. Sexual partners should be treated at the same time to avoid cross infection.

4. Changes in hormone levels

Pregnancy, menopause or changes in the menstrual cycle may cause fluctuations in hormone levels, leading to abnormal vaginal discharge and itching. Symptoms can be relieved by adjusting diet, supplementing with probiotics or using topical hormone ointments. If symptoms persist, it is recommended to see a doctor.

5. Allergic reaction

Allergies to sanitary napkins, underwear materials or wash lotions may cause vulvar itching and abnormal vaginal discharge. It is recommended to switch to low-allergy products and avoid using care products containing fragrances or chemicals. Local use of anti-allergic ointment can relieve symptoms.

If the lower body suddenly becomes itchy and the vaginal discharge is abnormal, targeted treatment should be taken according to the specific cause. If the symptoms persist or worsen, you should seek medical attention in time, conduct routine vaginal discharge examinations or pathogen tests, and receive standardized treatment after a clear diagnosis. In daily life, paying attention to personal hygiene, avoiding excessive cleaning, and choosing breathable clothing can help prevent such problems.
