While we might shy away from talking about genital eczema openly it is a real condition and a surprisingly high number of people who suffer from eczema have it on or near their genital area. Eczema treatments can significantly reduce problem area flare ups and end the embarrassment of genital itching from genital eczema.

Psychological Stress

Genital eczema is accompanied by embarrassment and stress because, let’s face it, it itches in places no one wants to scratch in public. There is a stigma associated with the genital area and for most people having anything flare up in that area is very stressful. The genital area is very much a part of the intimacy experience and those who suffer from genital eczema have an added extra stress. Eczema is not a STD but can be mistaken for one by a sexual partner. Treating eczema particularly in the genital area is important in reducing the psychological stress associated with any issues that may involve intimate areas of the body.

 

  • Educate your sexual partner about your eczema and the fact that it is not contagious.

  • Treatment is your next step. Use EczeMate every day on affected areas

  • Bathing in cooler water will also help to not exacerbate the affected area.
