Anogenital puritus during menustration

Hello,I had sex with a one night stand unprotected over 4 weeks ago. All of a sudden I developed this itch during my menstrual cycle. At first, I thought it was a yeast infection but 7 days into my cycle the itch was still there so I went to the hospital. The doctors did a urinalysis to check for any infections and did not find anything. Instead they diagnosed me with anogenital puritus and told me to pick up difflucan. What in the world is Anogenital puritus? I am going to the gyno for a second opinion. I just came out of my period and according to my cycle calendar, ovulation week is next week.  I am not sure if this is a symptom from it or something

It's sort of like contact dermatitis or an infection.  Supposedly it goes away pretty well with steroids.
