This is usually suggested for bacterial infections & for washing of ulcer. You should not use for vulva & not use in itching condition in any part of body. Itching on vulva may be due to many diseases like lsc, lichen sclerosus, lp, candidial infection, tinea & many others diseases. So consult with your dermatologist for proper diagnosis & treatment. You can also take online consultation.
