Hello and welcome to HCM,
Itching near the vaginal opening and around the clitoris is most often due to fungal infection.
Monicozolel is an anti-fungal preparation.
You need to use it for at least one week before symptoms of itching are relieved.
If the itching i still persistent, after using the anti-fungal for one week, you may consult your primary healthcare provider for clinical assessment.
If discharge is present then the discharge may have to be examined to look for micro-organism.
Suitable treatment can be planned after knowing the organism causing the infection.

Thanks and take care
