Hello, I suffer from diabetes type 2 for ten years. I take my meds regularly. I have a lot of extra weight and I tried for a long time to lose those extra kilos. For a long time I did not go to a doctor, but I am feeling some vaginal itching now. Is it normal for a diabetes patient to feel that?

No, that is not something normal. That tells us there is high sugar level in the blood, which lessens the acidity level in the vagina and all this causes that itching and this leads to increased risk of getting affected by some infection. You should see your doctor first and then see what steps to take.
