Continual labial itching
I've had labial itching in this area since I was at least 14 (I'm 50 now). The itching is confined to the area at the top and sides of the large lips nearest the clitoris, but not INSIDE the lips, strictly on the outside skin of the large lips. Whether I shave my pubic hair or not doesn't affect the itching, it itches either way. When my pubic area is hot, the itching is intensified, as it is when the area is wet from swimming or bathing. Wearing a wet bathing suit can be extremely aggravating. Sometimes sexual foreplay increases the itching. The last two or three days before my period usually causes the itching to increase; then once my period begins the itching sensation lessens considerably. After the period is over, the itching sensation starts again. The type of underwear doesn't affect the itching. Neither does changing my detergent, or soap, or towel material. I have no infections. The itching does NOT involve the vagina or the vulva, just this area of skin at the top of my labia. I have mentioned this itching to my gynocologist periodically, and he is noncommittal about it. I've used anti-fungal creams, anti-itch creams, moisturizers and tea tree oil at various times. All of these things stop the itching for a day or two, then it returns. I've also used Diprolene cream, which is prescribed for my hives. The Diprolene also only works for a day or two. I'm curious to know what might be causing this since I've had it all my adult life, and if there's a way I could get rid of it once and for all.
thank you ! for all u ladies out there for sharing your views ,i thought i was the only one having this irritating problem .for about 6 months now .i also tried a lot of creams too and thought.this was it ,but just yesterday ,i found from a ayurvedic site in India .that a herbal treatment which is in-expensive and found in every home .....GARLIC ; yes garlic just 1 clove cut into half (crush a little ) if you want instant relieve ,because its going to burn a little in that sensitive part ,but its worth ,rather then using all those expensive creams and medicines. so put garlic on both sides of ur labia and relax on the bed for 2-3hours at most after wards ,dub a cotton wool ball into vinegar and wipe the area gently ,bath after 1-2hours.
TRY IT !!!! IT WILL WORK WONDERS
iam 45 of age and had this for last 6months ,but yesterday i slept so peacefully ,and the size of labia was back to normal too
your well wisher

please,mine is that i ve been havin continual vaginal burnin.i dont know what could be the cause. please some advice.
I've read just about everyone's comment and I have been having the same issue for sometime now. Has anyone thought that it could be the pads or pantiliners that we use? I personally use Always. Also I try my best to add vitamin E and miusturizers because I believe the itching comes from dryness. I just wish someone would take us seriously. It's very annoying and even though I don't have odors it discharge I find it to be very embarrassing.
You are the first person to even touch on the correct answer to MILLIONS of females problems with itching DOWN THERE. I was shocked to learn that WOMEN CAN have PSORIASIS or ECXEMA. I was, and still am shocked. Millions of women are taking that little pink pill thinking they have the usual yeast infection when THEY DON'T !! Another FACT,......MEN GET YEAST INFECTIONS ANY TIME they have oral sex or sex with a female that has a yeast infection. SHE takes HER meds., shes finally better, then, BAM!! He just have it back to her!! So, if you go to OB/GYN to be treated for regular YEAST INFECTION.........TAKE HIM WITH YOU SO HE CAN BE TREATED ALSO!! Men have ZERO symptoms. None. What's new?! Women always pay the price. Right?? If your partner isn't treated same time as you, you're throwing your money away and wasting YOUR TIME. Take care!
Yea I too was once a sufferer (for about 10yrs), I had grafts taken and tried everything to no avail.anyway since falling pregnant and having the baby it just went away sooo I strongly believe it is hormone thyroid related. Ladies check it out!
I have been dealing with this problem for years and years now. The only relief I ever got was from Nystatin and Triamcinolone Acetonide Cream. The problem I have is that you have to see a doctor to get the cream and I cannot afford a doctor right now. So last week I bought Nystatin cream from a Canadian pharmacy, it came in the mail today. I couldn't get the cream with Triamcinolone because its a steroid cream. Nystatin is used to cure fungal infections, and Triamcinolone is for the itching. Hopefully the Nystatin will work alone. I hope all of you will find relief soon, and I will post my progress with the Nystatin cream in a few days. Luck to you all!!! xxxxxxxxxx
