You may have a fungal infection or this may be irritation due to the pad. Since you are on your menstruation, if you are wearing a pad, I would apply some Hydrocortisone cream to the area. If you wear tampons, then try a cream like Lamisil, You should see an improvement in a couple of days.
Try not to scratch at this, as this can cause infection to occur as well.
