Do you constantly itch between your legs?The longer this state lasts, the more unbearable the sensations become. The fact is that the area of the perineum and genital organs has a huge number of nerve endings, and therefore the itching here brings the most real suffering. In addition, many women are confident that if they itch between their legs, the reason necessarily lies in the "indecent" disease. However, it is not. Let's look at the most common reasons together.
Modern medicine has not yet givenfull explanation of this phenomenon. It is only known that the sensation arises from the weak, barely noticeable irritation of the nerve endings. Since it can not provoke full pain, the body is limited to signaling its condition through itching - as a result, the "suffering" place intolerably wants to scratch.
When a woman itches between her legs, often herthe first impulse is to run to the doctor. In principle, this is the right approach. It must be remembered that this "scabies" is not a cause, but an effect, a symptom. What does he point to? Conduct a visual inspection: if the skin on the pubic and large labia blushed, perhaps it's all in the carelessly made wax epilation. In addition, the gentle cover of the perineum can also respond to shaving. In this case, do not panic - all that is required of you is to lubricate the sore spot with baby cream and try not to pay attention to the importunate itching. Remember that the more you scratch, the more irritation becomes.
If you start to notice that you have a constantitches between the legs, think: but do not you neglect the elementary rules of hygiene? You can respond with indignation that you take a shower twice a day, but it's not just that. Synthetic underwear, especially tight, can create a real greenhouse effect in the perineum. Such an environment is ideal for the propagation of pathogenic bacteria. That's why gynecologists recommend giving preference to cotton panties. Of course, this does not mean that you will have to go to grandmother's pantaloons for the rest of your life - just choose models with a cotton gusset. Another possible answer to the question of why it itchs between the legs is detergents. Regular watering is sufficient for ordinary water flowing from the tap. Neither soap, shower gel, nor even special means for intimate hygiene, you do not need - they only irritate the mucous and dry the skin, making the itch only stronger.
If you perform all of the aboverecommendations, but you still itch between your legs, what to do in this case? The answer can be only one - as soon as possible to get an appointment with a gynecologist. Do not advise you to do self-diagnosis - this is too general a symptom.
Thus, the itching in the perineum is characteristic for suchdiseases or conditions, like candidiasis, genital herpes, fungi, trichomoniasis, scabies, pubic pediculosis, neurodermatitis, microflora disorders ... You can list a lot of diseases. To make the correct diagnosis, you will have to undergo a test and pass a series of tests.
