Title: TCM Perspective on Vulvar Itching

The itching of the vulva at night may be due to various factors, including internal and external. From a TCM perspective, it is often related to the imbalance of Yin and Yang, internal heat, dampness, or blood stasis. For example, internal heat can cause the body's fluids to become dry, leading to vulvar itching. Dampness can cause the accumulation of moisture, which can also lead to itching. Blood stasis can cause local blood circulation to be blocked, leading to itching and pain.

Title: Daily Care and Prevention

To alleviate vulvar itching, it is important to maintain good hygiene, wear cotton underwear, and avoid irritants. Additionally, adjusting the diet, avoiding spicy and greasy foods, and ensuring adequate sleep can help. In TCM, herbal medicine and acupuncture can be used to treat the root cause of the problem. It is recommended to seek professional advice from a TCM practitioner for a personalized treatment plan.
