Air/Gas bubbles in the vagina?
Over the last few months I've found that I've become uncomfortable - for some strange reason, it feels like there are air or gas bubbles sitting in my vaginal canal. I am 22 and only 'active' with myself currently. I have not gained or lost any weight or had any other health concerns.
Simply, one day when I went to bed I realised I felt uncomfortable, like there was a small air or gas bubble inside my vagina, only 3-4 inches in. I try to shift around and nothing happens, and I've even tried to open my canal with my fingers and nothing happens. Sometimes it's hardly there and I'm able to ignore it, other times it drives me utterly insane with the strange feeling. There is no pain, but it just feels incredibly wrong. It seems to grow a bit more persistant before my period (I've been on the pill for 8 years), and is really not noticeable during.
Anyway, if anyone has any suggestions on how to relive this discomfort, I would greatly appreciate it. I've got a doctor's appointment scheduled late next month, but it's incredibly frustrating to feel like you've got a gas bubble stuck in there while you're trying to settle in to sleep. There is only a slight occasional odor, nothing more than normal, I tend to get minor yeast infections every 6 months or so, though I haven't had one since the summer. No discharge to make note of, either. I do have a dairy allergy so I can be gassy, is it simply possible that when I fart the gas bubble somehow travels up into my vagina and lodges in there?

This happens to me also. I think its just gas. I get gas in my head, neck, vagina, womb and several other places. What i do is boil orange peels, ginger and about 2cloves crushed garlic with skin on, after mixture has come to a boil let simmer for a 5mins or more to make sure all potency is out and then strain . I then season with a tsp of brown sugar (optional) just for taste and i drink as hot as possible. If you have ulcerated stomach problems then you can exclude ginger the rest of the ingredients will work just fine. Hope this helps.
The absolute best thing that has helped me is drinking a probiotic like Lifeway kefir at least every other day. I hate the taste, but if I remember to do this, then I don't have my bubbles anymore at all. Then, I get lax and forget to drink it, and I kick myself right after drinking another glass of it.
It truly is the only thing that completely helps me. I do the kicks with my legs, and that temporarily helps, but nothing does the job like kefir.

Hey ladies, a while ago I remember searching the same thing and no one had answers. Turns out it was something called Bacterial Vaginosis. It is relatively harmless, turns up in women from their late 20s onwards and is treatable with antibiotics. Common side effects are the feeling of bubbles in it escaping your vagina and sometimes an accompanying smell that is not terrible but noticeable. Hope this helps.

I should add of course that it's only bv if the air bubbles are actually escaping your vagina. The feeling of a bubble that won't come out could be different.
After 2 months of testing (urine sample, ultrasound, blood test, pelvic exam), "pelvic organ prolapse" is my diagnosis. No odor, discharge, or infection. I just have the uncomfortable feeling of an air bubble in my vagina, 24/7. This pressure is caused by an inflamed bowel, which is pushing on the other pelvic organs. Not even close to a "queef."

How long does this last? Did it ever get better? Im having the same thing and have tried everything to get read if it and nothing has helped. Hope everything has gotten better in your end
Hello! I am experiencing the same thing currently. What is the treatment for this and how are u feeling?? Thx!!
So what was the solution? We just have to live with a bubble chilling in the vajayjay??
I have had this problem too. here is an amazing solution but kind of weird.
Go into a yoga pose called "candle stick pose" and then lower your legs fairly quickly. This will release all the gas (in your vagina or your butt) so you might want to be alone when you do it lol
Hope this helps

I just recently had my second baby 2 months ago. My baby was 9lbs, and I got the worst hemorrhoids due to it. ( yes, worse then giving birth! I thought I would pass out going to the bathroom) Maybe I do have a small tear between the two canals. I swear I had this problem before, but didn't think of it as a bad thing.So, hopefully, there is no tear. It bothers me now, as the bubbles hurt when they pass a certain part in my vagina, since I ripped. I've been on two rounds of antibiotics for infections. Last, round he didn't check me out, as I was still very tender. Maybe, they are due to infections. When I was on the last round of antibiotics, i was also on my first period. I didn't notice the bubbles. Anyways, a few days after my antibiotics and my period was over, I noticed the bubbles,and the pain around my tear..I also started feeling like poop again. Hopefully, things get figured out. Anyways, going to him with all the information is going to help! I want to get back to feeling normal! I can't even carry my baby around in her car seat due to not healing and hemorrhoids.Having these bubbles with everything else that is going on, *****! So, far I can rule out sex as a culprit, as we haven't had it for almost 8 months due to complications with my pregnancy. Going to get infections checked. Possible tears between the canals checked. Get my bladder checked! Hopefully, it's in the right spot. Also, I hope the Dr will agree to all this!

Hello purple midnight!
I am a certified midwife, your hemroids are linked to the pressure of carrying your baby internally, and of course pushing during giving birth. It seems that you should have been healed after 2mos regarding your tears..when people are ready to start a family and have children close together it usually is about 2 mo after giving birrh they want to get pregnant with another. Maybe you could consider switching gynecologists. The air in the vagina could be linked to a lot of things. And is less likely to have nothing to do with your tearing. I would highly recommend finding a new dr. So you can have your sex life back with your husband after 8months of not being able to please him as well. Also the rise of infection is a concern. If your still this sore after 2mos this is not normal and you could be prone to infection. I just noticed you had made this post going on a year ago. Has things changed since this?
