Hi,

If there is no sexual contact we can rule out STD, possible reason for your issue:

1. Dryness - can be due to any vaginal infection, dehydration, fungal infection since you have itching.
2. Masturbation would have caused injury and infection
3. Foreign bodies can also cause itching and pain.
4. allergic reaction to soap or deo or drugs can also cause itching.

Try to take antiallergic if you still have issues you need to meet a gynecologist.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr S.R.Raveendran, Sexologist
