Genital itching is extremely common and usually related to infections, hormonal changes, or sensitivities. However, persistent itching — especially when not relieved by treatment — can be an early sign of more serious conditions like vulvar cancer, cervical cancer, or vaginal tumors.
This is particularly important for postmenopausal women, whose symptoms are often dismissed or mistaken for normal aging.
What to watch for: Skin changes, unusual discharge, bleeding after menopause, or visible sores or lumps.
