Communicating about a problem does help. So why not come out in open and speak about the urge to scratch your crotch that crops up at odd times? You never know, your friend might be wanting to do the same.

Women suffer through varied vaginal problems during some part of their lives, the reason for which is mostly bad hygiene. We bring to you 5 common problems that you will definitely relate to. Click NEXT

Vaginal itchiness

Itchiness can either occur due to infections caused by yeast or fungus or could also be a symptom of a sexually transmitted disease. Consult a doctor for better clarity.

What's the way out: The simplest is to keep yourself clean and dry as much as you can.

Vaginal bumps

Bumps usually occur due to clogged pores. They are those sebaceous cysts that can outgrow on your vagina and also around the groin area. They are mostly painless and cancerous in nature.

What's the way out: Avoid using harsh soaps. Also, make yourself comfortable in loose and cotton undergarments.

Secretion with unpleasant odour

Most women would agree that this is one of the most common and irritating of all the problems. Excessive secretion usually occurs due to an imbalance of vaginal pH, which leads to growth of bacteria, eventually leading to unpleasant odour.

What's the way out: Upping the hygiene quotient coupled with a treatment comprising few oral drugs as prescribed by the doctor can help you tackle both.

Vaginal varicose veins

Mostly, the problem of varicose veins sets in after pregnancy. The reason, because of an increase in the overall blood flow and decrease in the flow of blood to the lower body. This mismatch in the flow exerts pressure on the veins, causing pain.

What's the way out: There is no cure. The condition gets cured automatically with time.

Skin problems

Of all the skin problems, psoriasis and eczema are the most common. Get in touch with the doctor for medication.

What's the way out: Keep yourself clean and dry, all the time.
