ITCHING down there, what is it pleaseeeeee??


Question:
There are times that i itch soooooooo bad down there, i'm a virgin, i take showers almost 3 times a day, 21 years old..What could it be, and what is causing it to itch??

Answers:
it sounds to me like u have thrush and the good news is it can be cleared up easily and quickly.
take canesten duo, where u will get a pill to take and some cream to rub on the itch.
you get this from most places like boots and ure chemist.
when u are showering try not to use perfumed soaps and dont use perfumed bubble bath as this makes the problem worse.
wear cotton underwear and avoid wearing tight clothing.
hopefully this helps.
good luck
thats wat happens to me, but it could just be flaking. idk. probably.
do you shave down there because supposedly regrowth itches alot?
You could have a vaginal infection. Do you have any foul odor or discharge? If not, try an over-the-counter itch cream like vagisil and take bath in warm water with a little bit of baking soda mixed in. Also, use a more gentle soap when showering, make sure you dry off very well, wear cotton panty's (or none at all), loose fitting pants in that area, and try eating yogurt (any flavor as long as it says "Contains live cultures". If you develop a foul odor, discharge, or the itching doesn't become better (or gets worse) in the next few days then call your gynocologist for an appointment as you may need antibiotics to clear the infection.

Hope this helps. :-)
it could be a yeast infection. it normally causes itching. call your doctor and explain to him your symptoms. if it is one then you can just go to any store and pick up some medicine for it, but you should really ask a doctor first so you don't misdiagnose yourself.
Could be a yeast infection. I used to get them from the chlorine in a swimming pool. Also, antibiotics and diet can cause them. Monistat (a product you buy at any local drugstore) now has a test kit to tell you if it is a yeast infection. It could also be a bacterial infection if the yeast test comes up clear. If it is bacterial, you will need to see your doctor. It could also be the soap you are using - especially if it is scented.

Good luck - I know this can be miserable
you shouldnt take three showers a day..its either a yeast infection or you are washing it too much...reaction to so much soap or whatever you use..that is very possible
You really should go and talk to your doctor about this. Being so itchy that you take showers 3 times a day is not normal. This site lists a bunch of things regarding being itchy "down there" so you can check that out, but you should still go to the doc to get a diagnosis.
It may be a yeast infection or something is irritating you. Check with your obgyn.
