Thanks for your advice, guys.
I spoke to my mother and she suggested trying thrush treatments.
I bought a pessary and cream from the pharmacy and it has disappeared within a day, I am so relieved. It's amazing, really. I had no idea it was thrush, it was so extreme that I thought it had to be something much worse.
Also, @apleasuretoburn, it has to be thrush because I have only slept with my partner and he has only been with one woman before me. I got swabs done when I got the IUD implanted recently anyway. Thanks for your advice!!

why have you not gone to the doctor? I would seriously consider getting tested for all STDs to eliminate this as a cause
Hi
Welcome to the MedHelp forum!
Itchy labia without any symptoms (no swelling, redness, smell, cuts, abrasions or discharge) can be due to an allergic reaction to toilet paper, skin creams, shaving, soap, shampoo, undergarments, condoms etc. Look back and see if there is a change in any of these. Otherwise it can be due to STD like herpes, gonorrhea, Chlamydia etc. Bacterial vaginosis too could be a cause.
Stress and anxiety too can cause itchy labia without any other symptoms. Lichen sclerosus is an extremely itchy skin condition that can affect the vulva too. There are many other causes like thrush, trichomoniasis, psoriasis, etc but they cause other symptoms too.
Since I cannot examine you and know other related conditions you may be having, nor is a detailed history possible on net, I have listed the various possibilities that should be looked into. Please consult your gynecologist to run tests and examination to clinch a diagnosis.
Take care!
Get an allergy patch test done had exactly same problem and i was allergic to a chemical in an intmate feminine wash. hope it helps. I am now completly cured!
