Sorry if tmi but im noticing some itching down there and im trying to conceive this cycle. Is this a thing in early days or am i just overthinking? pls share if u experienced same.
Ho na, early pregnancy changes can sometimes cause itching because of vaginal pH changes. But don't apply any creams on your own; just ask your gynac for a safe wash or ointment.
It can be quite uncomfortable, but please don't worry. Just try to wear dry cotton underwear and mention it to your doctor during your next visit so they can check it safely.
Actually, I'm planning too and was wondering the same thing! I read that vaginal discharge increases during early pregnancy which can sometimes cause mild irritation, but is it supposed to itch a lot?
In my house, my mother-in-law always said to avoid tight clothes and use simple warm water to clean up if there's any itching. But if it's very uncomfortable or smells, it's best to consult a doctor as it could be a yeast infection.
Itching down there can happen due to hormonal changes or a mild infection, which is very common. Practically speaking, wear loose cotton panties, keep the area dry, and avoid any scented washes, but do show your gynac if it doesn't stop.
