The ABCDs are a useful guide to evaluate moles (nevi), and the E (for exposure, that is to sun and sunburns) is often forgotten but also important. Nevertheless, while your mole might not be assymetric, have an irregular border, unusual color, or diameter larger than a pencil eraser, if it is bleeding and itchy this is also a point of concern. Certain skin cancers, like squamous and basal cell cancer, while often not as malignant as melanoma, can present in this manner. So I would recommend that you do have it checked out as soon as possible by a dermatologist. In general, moles shouldn't be itchy or bleed, and so this is a bit unusual and should be checked out as soon as possible.
I hope this helps. Please let me know if you have any further questions. Take care.
