Is it possible to have eczema on the vulva and if so, how can it be relieved?

Question

Every month, just before my period, I have itching in my labia minora and when I look at it, there are small cracks identical to those produced by eczema on my hands. Note that the eczema on my hands also becomes more intense before my period. I don't have any medication for eczema at the moment (vulva and hands) Hello, no discharge and no smell. I tried canesten at first thinking it was a vaginal infection, but it doesn't help. And since it comes back every menstrual cycle along with my eczema attack on my hands, I thought it might be that.

Hello ma'am, have you tried anything for this? Are there any other symptoms such as unusual discharge or smell? Thank you for the information. I suggest first and foremost applying Replens moisturizer, available without a prescription, as often as needed. For intercourse, use a water-based lubricant like KY before and during intercourse as needed, that can help too. If it persists or worsens, you should see a doctor as a precaution. I will be available if you have any further questions! Tom Samaha, Pharmacist
