Vaginal itching before menstruation?

This is the type of thing you must talk to your doctor about, as while it could be something common & non serious, only a doctor can advise you of the potential risks if it’s something worse that a simple recurring itch. Get yourself checked out, you’ll be happy you did!

I told my doctor about it because it almost feels like a yeast infection, but there is no discharge or anything. It just gets very sensitive and itches like crazy. She told me to get Boric Acid capsules and take two a day vaginally for a week, or less if the symptoms stop. She said you can also open a capsule and rub some of the powder where it itches. Instead of paying $40.00 for the pills-not covered by insurance, I got some Boric Acid on Amazon.. Get the stuff -for- vaginal use, not the stronger kind to kill roaches, of course. Get empty size 0 gel caps and make your own. Costs around ten dollars. Just put two in at night and wha-lah!

I’m thinking this is normal. I itch really bad a few days before my period and as soon as I get it the itching stops. I don’t have discharge and I don’t really notice an odor. I told my mom about this because I thought it might have been a yeast infection and she said “oh yea I used to get that way too right before I started my period.” but it’s annoying. try using some vagisil or try keep yourself lubricated down there. that seems to help a little.

Its quite normal to itch before your period.Dont laugh but maybe you could try shaving down there as it maybe your skin thats itching rather than your vagina.You can get creams and tablets for this problem.If your embarrased go and see your doctor.Ask for a female one if you want x
