What Causes White Dry Itchy Area On The Top Of The Clitoris?
Hi Doctor, I m a 29 year old recent mother. I keep getting a white dry itchy area on the top bit of my clitoris. It easily gets cut up also. I wear loose clothing and only cotton underwear. Do I need to get this checked? I notice it more after my menstrual cycle. Could the sanitary napkins be aggravating the situation?? Thank you in advance.

Hello,
It may be normal as sanitary pads absorb moisture and make it dry leading to itching and dry, clean area well, drink lots of water, do not apply moisturiser.
There can use V wash. If more itching and offensive vaginal discharge present seek the dr.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
