Itching in the vaginal area during menstrual period what could be wrong?

Itching in the vaginal area during menstrual period what could be wrong?My period was 9 days late and then out of no where finally came on and about the 2nd day into my period I began experiencing some itching in the vaginal area. Is very uncomfortable it seems like everytime I become moist in that area it itches ungodly. What do you think is the problem? be sure to examine the lateness of my period as well!! I am in a monogomous relationship on my end???? I dont want to even think of a sexually transmitted disease so tell me what you guys think about this?

Possible yeast infection or bacteria vaginosis . . . neither are considered an STD and both can cause intense itching/burning. Your late period could be to stress from the holidays? Best to check with your OBGYN.

Yeast infection, go get some meds from the doctor.

It could be the pads you are using. Try something that is not bleached and has a more cottony texture unlike always which almost feel like nylon. Alot of women are sensitive to pad or tampons and it is most likely that they are bleached.

Mrs Baker
it could just be a yeast infection.
