Yes, vaginal itching can be due to urinary tract infection (UTI) only. There might be burning micro-nutrition also. It can be subsided by taking syrup Citralka for 4-6 times per day for 3-5 days. It will restore the vaginal PH to normal and causes an unfavorable environment for the organism to grow in the vagina. You can even take any antibiotics like Ofloxacin, Levofloxacin, Clarithromycin, etcetera. All this acts vaginally site and subsides the infection. Go to the nearest doctor for the prescription of this drug. Maintain vaginal hygiene. Use V wash daily every urination.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
