You are most likely to suffer from fungal infection. These infections are stubborn and they may not go away with use of just creams.
Please visit a Gynecologist or a dermatologist and get evaluated. They will give you oral medicines to help you cure of the present infections by fungi.

Health Tips
If you are sexually active then such transfer of infections can also happen from one partner to another. So in that case asking your partner for such patches and itching is good and if he has such issues, getting both treated simultaneously is best. Also use of condoms at sex can protect you from getting such infections from the partner
