A member asked:

I recently use nair around my vagina lips and put tissue in between just in case it gets messy so it won't get in or around the opening of my vagina i had sex with my bf and i started to feel irritation and a little itching it because of the nair?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Probably. The Nair is really best for use on non genital skin as that skin is more absorptive. I would avoid using it for two to three weeks and the issue should clear up on its own. Using a mild steroid cream at the site can reduce the itching.
