Brief Answer:
Can be a fungal skin infection.

Detailed Answer:
Hello.
Thanks for writing to us.
The itching of skin in both the partners is likely to be related to a fungal skin infection. A photograph of the affected area will help in a better diagnosis.
You both need to keep the area clean and dry. It is better to use only cotton undergarments. You can use topical Candid B lotion which is available over the counter and see if it helps.
In case the problem persists then it is best to consult a dermatologist for proper treatment.
Hope this answer is helpful.
Feel free to ask any further queries.
Regards.
Dr. Rakhi Tayal.
