What Causes Itching At Vaginal Opening When Periods End?
Hi, For a few months now I ve been experiencing itching at the vaginal opening only when my period ends. Lasts only for a few hours though. This has never occurred til of late and I ve been seeing my period since 11. I m now 27 and the right side of my labia minora is enlarged in contrast to the left side.

Hi Thank you for asking HCM. I have gone through your query. Your problem can be due to yeast infection or irritation from chemicals like soaps or pads you use. Using anti fungal creams like clotrimazole or miconazole for local application will be helpful. Avoid soaps and irritants to wash the area and instead you can use saline or warm water. Use hypoallergenic pads. Using intimate wash daily is also good. Hope this may help you. Let me know if anything not clear. Thanks.
