Greetings
Recurrent genital itching in a 10-year-old is often caused by irritation from soaps or bubble baths, improper wiping, or potentially pinworms if the itching is worse at night.
For a child who hasn't started puberty, fungal (yeast) infections are relatively uncommon unless they have recently taken antibiotics.
The safest initial approach is to practice strict hygiene care, which includes washing the area with only plain warm water, wearing loose cotton underwear, and avoiding all scented products or harsh detergents.
