Severe itching around the vagina is commonly due to a fungal (yeast) infection. To get some relief, you can keep the area clean and dry, wear loose cotton underwear, and avoid soaps or scented products there. An antifungal cream used externally may help reduce itching. Do not use steroid creams without medical advice. If symptoms keep getting worse or do not improve in a few days, it is important to see a doctor.
