Thank you OED
Pudenda:The privy parts; the external genital organs, esp. those of a woman
pruritus:Itching; esp. itching of the skin without visible eruption. (Sometimes used as synonymous with prurigo.)
prurigo: An itching; spec. in Path., a diseased condition of the skin attended by a violent and chronic itching, and characterized by the presence of flat slightly red papules, and a thickening of the part affected. Formerly including other irritant skin diseases.
And now for the quotation cited in the OED:
1893 T. M. MADDEN Clin. Gynæcol. v. 59 The value [for pruritus] of a solution of cocaine freely brushed over the pudendum..is unquestionable
