Detailed Answer:
Hi..
Thanks for writing..
I understand your concern..

Is the itching associated with curdy white discharge? If so it could be fungal infection.. If there is no discharge it could be atopic vaginitis which is age related..

If there is discharge take a course of antifungals like flucanazole tablet for a day..
Clotrimazole clindamicin vaginal tablet for 3days and local application of clotrimazol cream twice daily for a week will subside the infection..

No discharge means application of a estrogen cream will be sufficient..

Hope I have answered your query.. Feel free to ask any doubts.. Good day.
