Vaginal itching can be a terrible thing and something that most women would prefer to avoid. This is one symptom of having a yeast infection. Vaginal itching can be a terrible thing and something that most women would prefer to avoid. Unfortunately due to some reasons, this is sometimes impossible. Many women suffer from vaginal itching which is very uncomfortable. For some women the vaginal itching is so unbearable that they have to seek relief from anything possible, and this might involve a quick trip to the ladies room to give in to a bout of maddened itching.
Relief for vaginal itching can come in many forms, but one of the easiest things you can do is to use Aloe Vera to help you. You need to extract some fresh Aloe Vera juice and apply to the affected area. You can either use your fingertips to do this or you can soak a piece of cotton wool in the juice and apply it that way. Another alternative is using powdered Slippery Elm bark. This could be purchased from a store that sells herbs. Mix the powder with a little water to form a paste and apply to the affected area much just like with the Aloe Vera juice. Another good remedy to stop unbearable vaginal itching is to use a yogurt tampon. Dip the tampon into a tub of unsweetened yogurt and then insert into the vagina. Alternately you could freeze some yogurt in the fingers of disposable gloves, and use these as frozen yogurt tampons which you would then insert into your vagina.
Another option is using a vinegar sitz bath to relieve your vaginal itching. You will need to fill the bathtub, about hip deep, with water and add ½ cup of apple cider vinegar. Sit in the tub with your legs widespread until the water has cooled.
Another very effective method is using a Tea Tree oil soaked tampon instead. You’ll need to use an applicator tampon to make this easier. This is done by first coating the top half of the tampon in a lubricant of your choice, then adding a few drops of Tea Tree oil to it and inserting the tampon into the vagina. The lubricant should be added to stop the Tea Tree oil from soaking into the tampon.
By using these home remedies, you can gain relief from your vaginal itching. All of these have been proven to work to stop vaginal itching, but if you feel the need, you could consult your physician before embarking on the usage of any one of these remedies.
