“Because there’s an increase in vaginal discharge during pregnancy, it can cause irritation of the skin of the
vulva.” So it could just be because of your
discharge, or it could be a sign of an infection like a yeast infection, bacterial vaginosis, trichomoniasis, herpes or HPV. You may also be experiencing irritation from a soap, lotion or detergent you’re using.
When should I go to the doctor with my vaginal itching or swelling during pregnancy?
