It needs detailed evaluation as it can be vaginal infection, UTI or simply irritation due to barrier contraception ( if used)

a simple urine test and examination would help for the diagnosis

Pain with itching in that area is more often a vaginal or fungal infection than a plain urinary infection, though both can overlap sometimes. A urine test can confirm whether it is a UTI, and a simple vaginal swab can check for a yeast infection if the itching continues.
Next Steps
Drink plenty of water through the day and wear loose cotton underwear. Cut back on sugary foods for now, since they can make a yeast infection worse. Please see a gynaecologist for the right test and treatment.
Health Tips
Go in sooner if you develop fever, back pain, or notice blood in your urine.
