TMI: Vaginal itchiness after weaning

Hi all! I’m looking for advice on how to deal with vaginal itchiness and dryness. I am 6 months pp and weaning the pump (I think I’ll be weaned in the next few weeks). Since dropping to 2 pumps per day, my hormones have been all out of whack. I’m so angry all the time, so fatigued, feeling similar to when I was freshly postpartum and now I’m experiencing intense vaginal itchiness. I get overstimulated easily so the itchiness is really taking a toll on me. I don’t have a UTI and I have none of the symptoms of a yeast infection, so I’m not sure if this is just related to the weaning which I’ve heard can happen??

Has anyone experienced this after weaning breastfeeding/pumping? I would love any advice you have because I feel like I’m losing my mind! Thank you so much!
