What Causes Itching In Rectum? Suggest Treatment

Hi I am a 16 year old girl and the inside of my butthole has been itching severely for the last couple of weeks. I have used witch hazel and preporation H and nothing has helped. It itches so bad. What could be the cause and how do I fix this problem?
