The blood volume increases during pregnancy, and so clitoris can get engorged and itchy during pregnancy. get a culture done to make sure you do not have a vaginal infection. A cold pack should help, but make sure you do not keep it for long. A non perfumed cream should help it keep moisturised, less itchy and avoid peeling.
