Yeah I got oral about 2-4 months ago. Well my taste is starting to come back but now there's a bump on my uvula. I'm going to call and make an appointment tommorrow.

First off, we only express our opinions and it cannot substitute a professional doctors diagnoses.

If your last possible exposure was 2-4 months ago, there isn't a STD that can cause you to lose taste sensations. How long as it been like this? Did you possibly burn your tongue or had an allergy reaction recently?

If you recently did change soap, it can definitely irritate the vagina if you have sensitive skin. Whether it is the cause, it is uncertain.
You should examine the time line, like if you changed soap brands and the next day your vagina got itchy, then this could be a very good suggestion it is some skin irritation.

Regardless, stop using the soap and see if the symptoms gets better.
If you recently had a sexual encounter, you would want to check with the doctor.

Also today after I showered I developed itchiness around my vagina. Do you think it could be an allergic reaction to my soap?

Did you just have oral sex 48 hours ago? Or has it been several months?

The loss of taste isn't associated with any symptoms of STDs though.
