Itching problems

Hello wonderful ladies, sorry for detailed message but I have a problem that someone might know the remedy.  I have a crazy itching vagina, nearly 14 weeks preggo. Sex with my hubby is out of question...too painful after. Doctors can't find any infections. Lots of discharge also well I read it is normal and that's fine...but itching drives me crazy:-((( maybe anyone had similar problems? If yes please help!!

Eat yogurt to balance your PH levels and drink lots of water. wear only cotton panties so your vagina can breathe...at night or when you can remove your underwear. Also take warm baths in baking soda and vinegar. Use regular vinegar no scented stuff down there!  Pregnancy completely changes the hormonal balance in the body. Great question; I'm sure other women have endured this issue as well!

Glad to know I'm not the only one experiencing this! I've used hydrocortisone cream on the lips of my vagina and it helps every time.

Stop using toilet paper after number 1 just wash with warm water your prob sensitive from chemicles in it. I had the same prob and it was not a yeast infection. It took 3 days but the itching stopped when I changed to water then dab dry with like a hand towel.

I'm 35 weeks and have been super itchy for most of my pregnancy. I don't have a yeast infection or UTI. I have used vagisil wipes, tucks pads, lotions, etc. Changing my underwear more often helped, so did wearing panty liners, but then my vagina feels rubbed raw. My dr said its due to the changing ph balance and one of the symptoms of pregnancy. Yay.
