What Causes Itching On The External Sides Of Labia Minora?
Hello, my 12yr old daughter is having some vaginal itching on the external sides of the labia. No burning or internal symptoms. No burning or pain when voiding just an uncomfortable itch. We are encouraged to air out during the overnight hours with no undies and have encouraged liquids, decreased sweets for harboring bacteria and have applied vagisal and feminine itch powder prn. I also encouraged no soap in the area. Besides cranberry juice, I am running out of ideas. Thanks for your help, Natasha CMA and mom.
