Hard to say: but if you scratched your vaginal area and now itches - you could have an infection

Why scratch?: Did you have an itch that lead to the scratching? Vaginal itching without discharge can indicate infections like yeast or stis like herpes. It can indicate an allergic reaction to household products like certain soaps and laundry detergents. There are also some skin conditions liked lichen sclerosis which can cause vaginal itching. . If not improving schedule a visit.
