Firstly an erosion cervix can't be a cause for vaginal itching.
Secondly both, vaginal itching and erosion cervix, need to be evaluated and treated.
Thirdly you should get a Pap smear done.

Yes you should go ahead with a Pap smear , as it is a screening test .
No need to be scared as it is always better to diagnose it as early as possible.
Every woman above the age of 21 has to get it done once in 3 years
Thus, u can encourage your friends and family to donut as well.
If u have any young girls around the age of 9-14 , you cab get them vaccinated .

Is it test to find out infection and precancer changes
It needs to be taken every 3 years in low risk patients not once in a lifetime
Rather than getting scared you should get the test done
