Skin cysts are common and can be quite itchy. Sometimes they can get irritated during your period. The white thing you mentioned could be a buildup of dead skin cells or sebum. To relieve the itching, you could try using warm compresses. Do not squeeze or pick at it. If it does not get better, it is best to have it looked at by a dermatologist.
