Brief Answer:
yeast

Detailed Answer:
Hello and thank you for your question.
I believe I answered you earlier but did not have all the information. If it is itchy and you are sure you do not have a sexually transmitted infection then try a yeast cream that you can buy at the pharmacy. Here are some names of medications to look for lamisil, terbenifine, ketoconazole, miconazole, nystatin. All of these medications will treat a yeast infection. Apply the cream twice a day for one week. If it does not resolve then see a doctor.
Regards,
