What Causes Severe Itching In The Vagina Post Sexual Abuse?

After being raped, I could not stop this intense itch. I knew I was going to get a rape kit but I inserted tea tree oil in my vagina because of the itch. I still do not have the results back but I really wondered if that could affect the result of the rape kit test.
