Stop using soap and water for cleaning vagina. Chemicals and Irritants present in soap is causing itching and dryness. Healthy Vagina has fine balance of good and bad microorganism in narrow range of pH .Any disturbance in these causes itching, dryness, white discharge. Special vaginal douches having balanced pH should be used to maintain Vaginal hygiene.
