Definitely a spot of 'razor-rash' I'd say. Don't know if you use foam and a razor or an electric one. Could try a 'sensitive skin' (aloe, or some soothing balm in it) shaving foam, a brand-new and very sharp disposable razor each time, and always move it in the direction of the hair growth, never against it. Rinse all traces of the foam off afterwards and dap it dry rather than rub away at it with the towel. Should make you feel less itchy. The skin will begin to feel less sensitive if it's regulalrly shaved and exposed, at first it can be a bit tender. Might look at waxing some time in the future, some women prefer it. Razor-rash can look a bit like a scary skin complaint, and scratching will only make more 'red dots' but it's not. In general, if you wet-shave the more 'nice' and comfortable it feels when you're doing it, the less likely you are to irritate the skin. That's what you're aiming at. Blunt razors don't half pull and snag at you, and a less than razor-sharp razor is a common offender!!
