i have had thrush before and thats why i was checking myself. i felt a little itchy. then discovered these lumps... i am very scared by this. does anyone know what they could be. the largest one i see is about 1centimetre in lentsh and they are all sticking out like "feelers" rather than bumps... some are in clusters under the uretha but none are odd coloured and none are leaking or itchy or sore...
Pretty tough to say from that description. If anything, it might be HPV. But that's far from certain. Best idea is to get yourself checked at a health provider. And use protection! If you keep having unprotected sex, you are bound to get a STD eventually. It's just that simple.
These bumps are mainly pointy rather than rounded.. the only way i can describe what the feel like is the same as the inside of a cheek... moist and fleshy.. they are strictly internal only. there are none on the labia's.
i can only see them if i pull my labias apart and look inside my vagina.... im unsure whether these are a normal part of the vaginal wall or whether they are growths..
Well that sounds like normal anatomy from that description. The inner walls of a vagina do have ridges, some people have more some have less, but that is normal.
However, anything I can say here is not much better than a stab in the dark. I still say you'll need to see someone if you're really worried about it.
i will go as soon as i can. Thank you for the advice and knowledge. aslong as it is normal for the inner wall to be lumpy.. lol.. i know thats its ridged but these seemed very large to me.
I'll go have it checked out as soon as i find a clinic.
was just wondering if you ever found out what the pointy lumps are, because recently I discovered the same thing pretty much in the same spot as you. My friend said it might be intense inflammation from a yeast infection ( due to birth control and or sex). However i also ccame across some info that stipulated that it might be hpv although most docs would not characterize pointy lumps as warts. I'm worried. currently am in a place where I don't trust doctor's diagnosis cuz they've botched them up majorly for me in the past.
