I would have your gynecologist or dermatologist have a look. They can biopsy the area to find out what it is exactly and treat appropriately.

i am having the same problem and nothing seems to help. my dr thinks it is a hormonal thing. i have tried everything and i have found something to help the itching subside and that is bordeux butt paste. it is considered a daiper rash ointment but it works...
