How Do I Stop Itching Down There?

Vaginal and vulvar itching affects women of all ages. One study suggests that as many as one in 15 women suffer from vulvar issues by the age of 40, and itching associated with vaginal dryness is even more common during perimenopause and after menopause.

  • Menopause
  • Skin conditions like eczema

Can hormones cause vaginal and vulva itching?

Hormonal fluctuations and low estrogen are another cause of vaginal itching.

  • Recent childbirth

How To Stop Vaginal Itch

Invest in a high-quality vaginal moisturizer

Look for ingredients like hyaluronic acid, which retains moisture, and vitamin E, which has antioxidant properties

Avoid dyes and scents

The dyes and scents in wipes, detergents, and feminine wash can irritate sensitive vulvar skin.

Skip the soap

Soap can be harsh on intimate and mature skin, so use clean water only when you wash the inner parts of your vulva.
