Maybe give some free advice about: Illnesses?
it could be if you wear tampons or have had your period and they are scented....you could be allergic but it may help if you buy new underwear or a bigger pair

Take a shower. Wash your business.

if its been like that for a really really long time then you might have this one thing where it itches for no reason at all...go to a dermitologist...they can help/diagnose your problem

Razor burn most likely or a yeast infection. Ask your docter, he/she will know.♥

Shaver burn... If you don*t think mayb it is because your underwear?? Mayb your vagina is seitive to that! Rate me 5 please!!

if the itchiness is followed by foul smelling discharge that is yellowy in color and redness in those areas.. then you could have a yeast infection. but its not that big of a deal and a gyny or a doctor can give you good medicine
if its just itchy- then try changing your underwear more often and only wear the 100% cotton ones for awhile
good luck-

Do you shave your vagina? If you do, its more the likely razor burn. Try applying some lotion.
If you don't shave then you might have a yeast infection. Talk to your parents and ask them to take you to the doctor because yeast infections are no fun! :-(

YOu could have a yeast infection. YOu don't have to have had sex to get a yeast infection. All women get them at one time or another in their lives. There is one way that you can be absolutely sure. Yeast infections are caused by an imbalance in the good bacteria and yeast in your system. You can get them in your vagina, your mouth, and even your digestive system, oh yes, I forgot on your skin also.
Of course a yeast infection is VERY VERY VERY Itchy. Not just a little. Very itchy and it gets worse and it won't stop until you treat it.
Anyway the one way to know for sure is if you have some yogurt in the refrigerator. No matter what kind, but plain is best, put some of the yogurt on your vagina. If the itching goes away IMMEDIATELY, then yes dear, you have a yeast infection. Good news though, it is easy to cure, and you no longer have to go to the doctor. No the yogurt won't cure it, but it will make it better until you can get to the pharmacy tomorrow AM, first thing, get some MONISTAT. It is in the health isle. You don't need a subscription. I think it costs about 15 to 2o dollars. It is a suppository. Follow the instructions. And you will be cured.
Good luck
Oh, if the yogurt doesn't not stop the itching then it is something else. Write back with other symptoms if the yogurt doesn't work.

Could it be RazoR buRn??? That's a possibility. And ways to pRevent that would be NOT shaving EVERYDAY, shaving UPWARDS, neveR DRY shave, apply lotion afteRwaRds, and using a good RazoR.
If it's NOT RazoR buRn I don't know what to tell you. Maybe you don't wash enough?? [not to insult ya] :) You could always tRy Vagisil [ [Link](Mouse over link to see full location) ], and applying baby powdeR in youR undies.
If the pRoblem peRsists, peRhaps it's time to consult youR physician foR a pRofessional Medical opinion.
Hope this helps!! =D

I think you might have Yeast Infection. They have products for that at the supermarket or drugstore. You should proly ask your mom before it gets to to bad. Hope i could help. Hope it gets better.
