What is it?
Contact dermatitis of the genital area is an inflammatory skin reaction caused by direct contact with irritants or allergens. Due to the sensitivity of genital skin, even mild triggers such as soaps, detergents, sanitary products, lubricants, or fabrics can lead to redness, itching, burning, or discomfort.
How it works?
When the genital skin comes into contact with an irritating or allergenic substance, it triggers an inflammatory response. Repeated exposure or scratching can worsen the condition and prolong healing. Treatment focuses on identifying and eliminating the trigger while calming inflammation and restoring the skin barrier.
