saoirse agony auntWell vaginal itching could be one of many things. You could have a vaginal yeast infection, which is going to keep getting worse until you go to the doctor. You could be chapped if you haven't been cleaning yourself properly, or you could be allergic to the dye in your underwear.

You need to know though that realistically, you could have an STD. Chlamydia and Gonorrhea are two that present the symptoms you are describing and both are totally curable by taking a course of medicine.

I would suggest you slow down with your boyfriend. I'm not sure if you were saying that you only see him every two weeks, but if there i a chance he could be cheating on you, or if he's had a lot of partners in the past you may have something. Go to the dr. let them run the tests so you can get on some medicine and stop worrying. Then, quit having sex, and enjoy being 15, because before you know it its gone.

ArmyMedic agony auntwhen you say you have no hair is it because you shave down there? As that could be one cause of the itching.

I strongly suggest you go to your doctor any itching down there is not a good sign. It could be a simple fungal infection (thrush) or it could be some nasty STI.

Please make sure you have safe sex, it is illegal for under 16s to have sex and there are far too many teenage pregnancies on here!

ShanL agony auntMaybe it's just that you're using some type of powder or soap that irritates that area, but that's not the only alternative because you are sexually active. So are you sure that your boyfriend is not sleeping around or has a problem below also. (I'm not saying he's cheating but you two are having sex!) You may not want to go to the hospital, but this might be serious. I too itch down there but it's because I be irritated by the soaps, powder, and sometimes washing powder, but I'm not sexually active. To be very positive and sure please go to the doctor and keep whatever happens confidential.
