Embarasssed

A while ago I shaved some hair off of the skin around my vagina. Now(a few days later) it has been itching like crazy. I searched to see whatit was and i didn't find anything. Do you know what it is?

I get that too, nothing to worry about, its just a saving rash, it also itchy when the hairs start to grow back... Nothing to worry about :)

Hi and thanks for using the forum.

Sorry, I somehow missed your question.  This is most likely the hair on your vagina growing back.  It can be itchy when the hair is coming back in.  Give it sometime and see if the itching improves.  If it does not get better, or seems to get worse, then see your doctor.  Good luck.
