Itchy vagina during ovulation and period

Hello you all,  I am battling an itchy vagina during my period. I am sort of leaning on that it's hormones that's making me itch during ovulation and period. During ovulation, I have no specific odor or weird discharge. Days after ovulation the itch leaves.  Then days leading up to my period I had runny stool and the stool happens to go into my vagina region.  I hopped in the shower hoping to wipe and clean all of the stool. As I was drying off I noticed stool in the vagina region so I continued to wipe. Some days later my period started and that's when the itchiness began.  

I rarely have any yeast infections but I know what it feels like to have one and this is what it feels like.

I did have unprotected sex weeks ago but I am out of the window period for an sti.
What could this be?. I have no discharge or foul fishy odor

Could be.  Hormonal shifts and imbalances can cause itching.  When you are trying to conceive, you can tell your partner that you have the itch.  Okay, REALLY bad joke.  But if it is brief, it may be something you have to deal with. if you itch every time you menstruate, tell your doctor at your next visit.  good luck

Hello, thanks for the advice. I forgot to add that days leading up to my period I consumed a lot of grape juice that was full of sugar. It made me have runny stool.  I wonder could this also caused a yeast infection. So far I am drinking water and bathing in antibacterial soap and warm water.  It is a little better today
Well you can drink cranberry juice 1 glass every day to get rid of all kinds of infections in your body,and definitely do have a look on to your diet cause this can be due to low immunity in your body too,so including coconut oil,yogurt,yakult,garlic, cranberries can be at help.
Oh, that's a good idea too about cranberry juice. I forget about that.  thank you
