Possibly: Lots of possible causes to genital itching, a yeast infection being a common cause. Can't say with certainty your specific cause so it's best to see your doctor to make certain of the diagnosis.

Maybe but: Vaginal itching and in the surrounding area called the vulva can be a sign of a yeast infection in the skin. If it happening from time to time that is not likely. Simple heat & sweating are the most common cause of occassional genital itching. Herpes can present as itching which comes and goes. Allergic reactions to houselhold products can too.
