Hello and welcome to HCM,
Itchiness in vagina and white colored discharge are probably due to vaginal infection.
Fungal infection is often associated with rash, intense itchiness and white colored discharge.
The vaginal discharge needs to be examined for micro-biological investigations.
Micro-biological examination will isolate the infectious agent.
Isolation of micro-biological agent can be followed by appropriate anti-microbial.
Thus, I suggest you to consult your gynecologist at the earliest.
Thanks and take care
