Raised bumps all over my inner labia?
Two years ago I noticed these small very raised bumps all over my inner labia on both sides. They almost look like cauliflower. They don't burn, itch, or cause me any pain I just thought it didn't look normal so i immediately went to my gynecologist and she said everything looked normal. Two things, I've never been sexually active or even close to being naked with anyone, and I got the hpv vaccine when I was 16. I noticed this on my inner labia two years ago and I am now twenty and it's still there. I feel like it's not normal to have these all over my vagina. Does anyone have anything like this or have any clue of what this can be so my mind can finally be at peace? Thank you.
I did ask her what she thinks it could be and she didn't give me an answer. She just said everything looks normal. I don't think she really even knew but I tried searching literally everything it could possibly be genital warts but I can't really tie anything together as how I would have gotten that. Thank you so much for your help though!

In the future you might want to find another doctor; a good doctor would give you a thorough explanation about your questions. Keep in mind that genital warts are due to sexual contact with a person infected with HPV; the good news here is that you don't need to be worried about warts at this point due to your lack of sexual history. Take Care :)
Hi,
Did your doctor ever mention what these bumps were exactly, or what had caused the bumps to appear? You could always go in for another pelvic exam and ask the doctor directly so that you can get a professional diagnosis... There are other types of bumps that are commonly mistaken for genital warts, that you might want to research on your own before you visit your doctor. Try searching online, the following: Molluscum (molluscum contagiosum), skin tags, and vaginal papules. I believe these are considered non-serious. Sometimes you'll be able to view images that can help you pin-point a better description for what these bumps might be, but still you'll want to get a professional medical opinion. Good Luck!
