Itching in the diaper area

Question

Asked for Female, 22 Years

I'm a 22 year old girl. And the skin around my genitals is itchy. It itches only when I scratch. It started a week ago or so. I thought it must be some kind of an insect bite but the entire area around my genitals is itchy and not just one part. Starting from my upper thighs backwards. There is no inflammation nor redness. The skin is looks normal.
