Cycle repeats every month is normal.
Itching can be due to irritation with use of sanitory pads or infection
Next Steps
if you are getting rashes consult doctor as it needs physical examination.
if its just itching or irritation
you need to maintain hygiene, change pads frequently even if they are not soaked, wash every time when you go for washroom, calamine lotion will be enough.
