I'm experiencing itching around my vaginal area and buttocks. It looks like a fungal infection, and there's also some swelling. What could this be, and how should I deal with it?

This could be fungal infection u need to evaluate with your Dermatologist and get appropriate treatment with oral antifungal medications and topical lotions,once the infection is resolved your hair fall would come down,I suggest you not to use minoxidil with active fungal infection,above this your personal hygiene care is more important.
