A member asked:
Irritated, itchy vulva. the only thing that soothes it is an ice cube. what is it? is it an allergy to soap?

Both: Without any lesion observed, I think irritation from soap, particularly scented soap should be considered. On the other hand, it may also be from dry skin and you may try applying a moisturizer to the area immediately after bathing to see it this helps. If not, consult a dermatologist.
