I wasn't planning on testing myself for a yeast infection. I just wanted an opinion before i went to the physician. I don't know it if a yeast infection or not. and also benign cyst is that bad?
If it's a hard lump it's not your herpes. Probably a benign cyst or an ingrown hair. Soaking in the bathtub can be helpful or just apply warm compresses several times a day to it until you can be seen. Don't guess and self treat for yeast - have them properly test you for vaginal infections.
Hope you get answers and relief soon :)
