Why Do I Have Whitish Substance in Vulva Area?
Patient's Query
I am 25 years old Female and 6 weeks pregnant at the moment. i am suffering from an infection in my vulva and pubic hair region since 7 years now. It’s something like whitish and cheesy substance in the vulva and blackish dirt like in other remaining hairy region. I scratch it everyday before bathing but it keeps coming back within hours. What should I do?
Answered by Dr. Archit Aggarwal
Hey there! It might be a yeast infection, or perhaps it is a fungal infection in the vulva and pubic hair area as well. The whitish and cheesy substance in the vulva and blackish dirt in the pubic hair region are common symptoms. Yeast infections can be caused by moisture, poor hygiene, or taking antibiotics. The area should be kept clean and dry, wearing cotton underwear, avoiding harsh soaps, and not scratching it to prevent further irritation from the above. Over-the-counter antifungal creams might work but you can also consult a dermatologist.
