Itchy vagina unsure what it could be

Posted , 3 users are following.

hi , i have been getting an itchy vagina every now and again and im not sure whats causing it. i lost my virginity two weeks ago and we used a condom. im not allergic to latex and the only thing i can think of is i wasnt wet at all and im wondering if my vagina is maybe irritated? i feel a bit dry still and im not sure if im overthinking it or not. everything was fine before the sex and then now not. note ive never suffered from any infections before, i smell completely normal and my discharge is completely normal, its really just the occasional itch. (strangely worse at night and in the morning) . im also not using any new soaps or washing powder. please help

    Which part of it that itching? did the dryness persist while you're having sex? it might be an irritation from the skin. maybe you could include a picture to show which part are itching the most

      just literally my vaginal opening. everything looks normal. i wasnt fully wet during the sex due to nerves. there is no redness or inflammation or anything weird or wacky

      did the itching happen at the flap between labia minora and majora? or at the opening of vulva? Do you make sure you and your partner intimate parts are clean?

      I thought at first it might be bacterial or fungi infections but from what you say I doubt that. and also you said there's no redness or any inflammation showing on your intimate part. It might be much more clear if u could upload an image but it's okay if it's embarrassing for u. I think the solution might be to maintain your personal hygiene and also cut your pubic hair short. (I'm not recommended you to shave because it might triggered irritation).
