Pregnancy-Safe Treatments For Vaginal Itch Do Exist, Thankfully

There's a seemingly endless list of pregnancy irritations that are as uncomfortable to discuss as they are to experience. Chief among these awkward maladies is vaginal itching. No one wants to walk around scratching their crotch, and no one wants to talk about it. But there are pregnancy safe solutions for vaginal itch (thank goodness) and there are more remedies available than you may realize.
Dr. Ronald Salzetti, Division Head of Obstetrics and Gynecology at Scripps Clinic in California, tells Romper that vaginal itching during pregnancy is fairly common, and is often tied to "the increased amount of vaginal discharge that happens during pregnancy.
" Combine the excess discharge with an expecting mom's adoration of leggings (which are comfortable, but not so breathable), and add all that on top of the increased allergic responses that come with pregnancy, and you have the recipe for irritation. Salzetti says that the first step of treating your scratchy vag is determining the cause of the itch. If it's bacterial, he says your doctor might prescribe something like clindamycin; if it's yeast-related, you'll be guided to use an over-the-counter topical product like Monistat or Vagisil, because oral antifungals like Diflucan aren't pregnancy-safe.
Thankfully, there are also strategies to help prevent the unfortunate circumstance of an angry crotch spot during your pregnancy. Dr. Aparna Sridhar, Associate Professor of Obstetrics and Gynecology at the David Geffen School of Medicine at UCLA tells Romper that the culture's collective obsession with stretchy pants and silky spandex underwear might be the impetus for the itch, and if pregnant people just switched to cotton underwear with maximum breathability (and stayed away from the leggings for a little while), things might improve for their uncomfortable undercarriages.
"We encourage women to avoid synthetic underwear or tight pants and recommend loose fitting cotton garments," she says, adding that it's "best to use fragrance-free, pH-neutral soaps to the clean the area outside the vagina." Save the cucumber and lavender body wash for the legs and underarms, if you must.
If the vulva is already inflamed, Sridhar says coconut oil or petroleum jelly can be used for "symptomatic relief." However, if there's a foul odor, or if the discharge is discolored, you truly do need to consult your provider. Because at that point, Sridhar says that you are probably dealing with something bacterial or yeast-driven, and it will need closer inspection. Even if that is the absolute last thing you want to be doing.
Unfortunately, some people are simply more prone to yeast and allergic dermatitis in their downtown during pregnancy than others. Dr. Salzetti says it's likely some combination of luck and genetics that causes some pregnant people to develop more irritation than others.
Just like morning sickness, Braxton Hicks, and stretch marks, irritated and angry vaginas are partly the unlucky luck of the draw.

during pregnancy en
Practically every woman knows how to take better care of her face, how to choose the right products for body and hair care.
At the same time, many people forget that care in the intimate area requires no less careful care.
In a sociological study conducted in Italy, the majority of women, when asked if they use intimate hygiene products, answered that they were not sick, and therefore there was no need for it. However, few people know that daily intimate hygiene is the key to women's health and ignoring the rules of personal care can lead to unpleasant consequences. There are three most common problems that every woman encounters at least once in her life.
Dryness
Causes : Vaginal dryness is a condition where the vaginal glands produce very little lubrication. Most cases of dryness are related to fluctuating levels of estrogen, which is responsible for the production of mucus in the vagina, the blood supply to the vagina, and the creation of an acidic environment favorable for the development of normal vaginal microflora. Therefore, many women experience dryness before their period, during pregnancy, especially during the first few months, and also during menopause.
In addition, the causes of dryness in intimate places can be excessive exercise, the use of oral contraceptives and certain medications, smoking and alcohol, constant stress, douching, and allergic reactions. nine0003
Solution: In the event of an allergic reaction, everything that could cause it should be discarded. Synthetic underwear that does not allow the skin to "breathe" should be replaced with cotton, scented toilet paper, bath foam and panty liners should be completely abandoned. If vaginal dryness is associated with age-related changes, you should consult a doctor who will advise hormonal ointments and suppositories. In postmenopause, it is worth deciding on hormone replacement therapy. To relieve the feeling of dryness, it is recommended to moisturize the intimate area with special products that are suitable for daily use (for example, Vagisil® intimate moisturizer)
· Itching (irritation, burning)
Causes : There are more than 60 causes that can cause vaginal itching.
In this case, most often it can be accompanied by inflammation, burning, discharge and an unpleasant odor. Itching can indicate not only violations in hygiene, but also thrush, bacterial vaginosis, trichomoniasis and non-infectious vaginitis.
Solution: To begin with, it is necessary to exclude all possible provoking factors - hygiene products, washing powder, linen made of synthetic materials. If discomfort persists, then you should contact a gynecologist who, with the help of tests, will determine the cause. If the cause is thrush, Vagisil® cream and wipes, containing a local anesthetic, will help to quickly eliminate the symptoms of intimate discomfort, until the effect of the drugs has come. nine0003
· Smell
The genitals of a woman have their own specific smell, because in the intimate area of a woman there are about a thousand sweat glands. However, a pungent smell from the vagina is always a sign of problems in the organs of the genitourinary system.
