A member asked:
Why does my vagina get red and irritated before my period?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Causes: The first thing you need to do is see someone to rule out infection. Otherwise, all genital tissue is responsive to sex hormones associated with your changes throughout the month including genital engorgement.
