Hello,
Itching is not the symptom of HIV.
Once you are infected with HIV virus it may take 3 to 6 months for production of antibodies which results in test being positive.
You can get tested for HIV now,as already 6 months have passed and if result is negative,then you are free of HIV.
Itching in vagina could be because of various other reasons.
Thanks
