To: ANYONE I'M SCARED

I'm so scared I haven't gotten any sleep because a few days after me and my bf had sex a bump showed up overnight on my vagina lip. It looks like a pimple but it wont pop. I have been under alot of stress because of college ending soon. Also I am discharging a little bit of fishy smelling liquid seeping out of my vagina. Another thing that I'm scared to death about is there is a spot if you look at the egde of your hip closest to your stomach go 2 inchs down and 1 inch towards your vagina there is a lump on the inside of my skin its hard and moves around a little. These bumps go away after about a month and they come back sometimes. I'm so scared please help me... email me please if anyone can help I'm scared to tell anyone... good_liven_al***@****

I'm 14 years old and I have had sex this past weekend, I took a shower and after we finished my vagina started feeling really itchy and it was burning, the next morning I had little white pimples near my vagina and close to where I pee from. There were 5 and 4 are close together, I popped them and now they are red bumps, I'm really scared. Someone please help me because explaining this to my mother makes me feel shameful and I don't want her to find out that her daughter is catching stuff at such a younge age. Help!

>.< I'm 15 and i've never had sex EVER or anything like that. Annnd I'm a very shy and coward person. When I was like 12 I remember shaving my vagina for the first time and ever since then there was been alot of bumps, they go away and then come back in different and the same spots over and over again. I'm afraid to tell anyone <.<" Can anyone help me. But I also dont have any money to buy any kind of ointment or something, is it gonna stay because I havent rlly done anything about it for so long. Today I shaved again because I wanted to take a good look at how bad it is and its pretty bad. I DON'T KNOW WHAT I SHOULD DO!!!! I mostly just cry in the bathroom thinking about the worst.

I have the same problem but I haven't had any recent sexual activity. I'm still a virgin, and I have two red bumps on the lips of my vagina and they are parallel from each other. I didn't notice them until yesterday after shaving. I think it's just irritation from the razor because I get UTI's a lot, and I'm very sensative in that area. I put mono stat cream on it right away yesterday but they're
still there and they itch. I'm not sure what it is and I'm scared to tell my mother. What should I do?):

To: anyone

Kind of sounds like what i get a lot. I remeber going to the dr once several years ago, seems i've been getting these ever since i hit puberty, but when i went to the dr i had a huge bump right on my bakini line. i shave, but not frequently cause i develop razor bumps & scar so easily as a result. it could be due to shaving but since this particular one was so big (biggest one i've ever had) & started to turn the area around it red & very sore, it was most likely a simple infection. she told me we have glands i that area just like the lymph nodes in our neck & underarms & sometimes they will swell up too. sometimes if they need to they can lance them to get the pus out. sometimes i just get ones the swell on my outer vagina that get a little sore & sometimes i get smaller ones that pus. i usually soak in hot water or put a hot cloth on it & as long as im at home, i keep on baggy sweats, no underwear so they can breathe & nothing rubbing up against it to irritate them. i will admit i've had one of each (2) that seems to not want to go away completely. a week ago the small bump had pretty much healed over & stopped bleeding/pussing & the swollen bump wasn't sore anymore & had gone down considerably but tonight i noticed its back & this time it looks like its going to come to a head so i'm going to keep heat on it & baggy sweat & hopefully it will hurry & come to a head then go away. dont hold on too tight to my own visit to my dr because it was several years ago & i basically remember it NOT being anything serious & something we just get. also my mom said her & hermother used to get them a lot too so even hereditary?? not sure

Today I noticed like two or three little red bumps around my vagina. They only hurt until you squeeze them and then like a very small amount of "watery" odorless liquid comes out and then it disappears. Afterwards I apply triple antibiotic cream on it and im fine. I think I have an untreated yeast infection bc it also itches from time to time.

Okay, I have had this before and my friend has it now, shes proper freaking out so we went to the Dr and she sed that it is nothing to worry about, just a skin irritation caused by soap, itching and sometimes even you bed. So dont worry and stop freaking out everyone (: Its okay, just leave it and dont pop it or itch it, other wise it could get worse or even infected and shizz (:

To: worried

Me and, my boyfriend for over a year now, have unprotected sex. We have for a while now, and both of us are clean, been tested and everything.about 5 days ago we had sex and we also had sex the next day, then that very next day i noticed a very painful swolen area at the bottom of my vagina near my butt, and i had an odd discharge. The next day it was worse and more painful, and it would burn the swolen area after i pee. The swelling has gone down some but now there are pimple like bumps where the swelling used to be. The bumps are painful to the touch and almost feel raw, they are alittle itchy but i dont scratch them for fear of making it worse. Its still swolen, but yesterday i noticed blood in the discharge and now its like im on my period even tho i just had mine about a week and a half ago and im on the pill to regulate them and have been for the ladt 3 months n not had an irregular period. Im having to use tampons bc i dont have pads, and it is sooo painful to put a tampon in. We thought it was a yeast infection, but i dont knoe for sure. Im worried amd cant get to the doc till monday. Plz help, what could this be...

okay so basically ive had these cyst like things on my thighs and on my bikini line since i was like 11 so clearly its not sexually related, the outbreaks only occue sometimes and theyree really painful and annoying and im not really sure how to get rid of them all the doctors havent really been able to do much. Aside from that recently after having done some sexual things like being fingered etc (still havent had sexual intercourse though) ive been having oout breaks of pimple like bumps on my vag not inside the "lips" or anything but on the outside the only thing i can think ofis i get waxed and your noot supposed to do any major sweat inducing excercises or wear tight clothes within 48 hours of getting waxed cuz it can cause ingrown hairs and pimples cuz of the sweat irritation otherwise though seeing as i try to avoid this i dont know what could be the problem i take showers and am generally quite clean so anyone have any ideas

I have like 3 spots around my vagina hole, I'm 13 never had sex. They just randomly came yesterday, they hurt but don't itch or anything. When I touch them they are sore. I haven't told my mum or doctor because I don't know how to, I just don't know what it is. Could someone help?

you may and probably have herpes either one or two, the bad kind is 2 and the not so bad but still ***** kind is 1.
I have herpes 1 and have gotten it in my mouth and down there, it ***** either way. i have never had sex before. but i have received oral sex...which is maybe how i got it. or i could have given it to myself somehow the doctor said.
my suggestions for home are the following:
1. lemon balm- tea to drink and cream to put on the sores
2. don't wear underwear until u r better and if u must wear white cotton underwear
3. don't have any sex unprotected anymore (oral, vaginal, anal)
4. take valtrex it is a prescription that treated Herpes Simplex 1 and 2
5. take baths (PLAIN WATER-NO SOAPS)
6. Don't stress, cry too much, trust me, you will get more and more sores
7. invest in dresses and skirts until you feel better again
8. take care of yourself and be kind to ur body

Answers alot of questions...
First and foremost see a doctor, and dont b afraid to talk to your parents. How do you know they arent having the same issues? If they get mad at you isnt it better then them finding out from you? It has been proven its not always from sex or is a STD. Protection during sex is probably the most important thing to do.

Take a look at this site, sometimes it can be STDS or like in this link blocked glands. Because we sweat and cover up most of the time, glands can get blocked.

I don't know what this is. I'm thinking it maybe could be from dryness but my bf and I have sex a lot and every now and then after sex ill get on the skin that covers the clit on the top a sore. It hurts a little bit but itches more not unbearably but still. It goes away in a few days though and it'll stay gone until we have hours of sex and it'll come back. Ne suggestions

Hi, did you ever find out what that was? Because what you described is exacly what is happening to me right now. After I shaved down there yesterday, I had sex with my boyfriend (with him, the first time..I've already had sex before which is why I am a little worried it might be an std I may have gotten with him or something) I can't be sure if it was last night or this morning that I noticed a small, red, pimple like bump on my left inner thigh, near my crotch. I'm scared because I don't know what it could be... as soon as I noticed it, I proceeded to scratch it (it itched a bit.. ) and when I did, the top part came off I think and it began to burn a little. It got even more red around the edges.. it felt like a mosquito bite but I know it's not. Maybe a bug bit me at night down there? Or razor burn? I don't know. My question to you is, did you ever find out what the bump was? Did it go away on it's own or what. This is really important. Thanks!

It is possible you have a type of folliculitus (folliculitis) caused by shaving. Seeing as howlong it has been going on I would see medical attention especially if it is becoming really bad don't want to catch a serious infection.

To: Bump near Vaginal area

32 years old and I've never had sex. I ran out of the house and went to the store yesterday without any panties on and was wearing some blue jeans. A pimple like pump apeared just now (the next day) after an afternoon nap. The pimple is sore, I've never had one of these before and I think it may be due to not wearing any panties yesterday. What can I do to treat the bump, as I'm not comfortable with any doctor going down there?

To: Who Ever Could Answer This

Ok. I seen that this is common because the area isn't kept clean and all but could it also happen if you are using soap that is meant for that? I use Summers Eve for my wash below and I also had a yeast infection for a while too so can that also be a contributing factor to my problem? I too have one and my boyfriend said he occasionally got them as well. It's on the outlining of the outside of the area but close enough to where its almost there.
