A member asked:

I am an endurance cyclist and have itching and peeling skin in my vaginal area, what might cause this?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Bicycle seat.: It may sound obvious, but the most likely cause is simple irritation from your bike seat. It could also be a fungal or yeast infection, however, or more rarely, a bacterial infection or contact allergic reaction. Your doctor can do a scraping or culture to determine the cause.
