Internal Vibrating/Buzzing in My Vagina

I have been experiencing a buzzing or vibrating sensation for the past week in my vagina.  It feels as if I am sitting on a cell phone that is faintly vibrating.  The sensation feels as though it is internal and takes place from my vagina up into my cervix.  There is no regular time period in between when this sensation occurs.  Sometimes it takes place every 5 minutes, sometimes every 15 seconds or so.  It usually lasts for just a few seconds.  I am in my early 20's, so I am not approaching or going through menopause.  I also should be having my period any day now.  The sensations do not hurt, it just is concerning me because I have never experienced this before.  Has anyone ever had the same experience, or does anyone have any idea what could be causing these vibrating/buzzing sensations?

Anyone use when they had their periods??? My machine states obviously U can use when pregnant but then says not to if you have periods
Any thoughts on why?? Just wandering if this could be a reason why some of the people commenting have had issues with irregular cycles etc

Thoughts..

I READ MOST ALL THESE COMMENTS..But I have had this cell phone vibration feeling for about 2 months now, and the dr. smiled, and said it's probably my labito or women changes.  What a crock!  I noticed it starts seconds after I go to the bathroom. And now for the past couple days, it is just starting when I walk or just relaxing, but its much lighter, and doesnt last as long as when I used the bathroom. It will start vibrating in waves, and last from 2 to 4 minutes or so. I have had back surgery over 12 years ago, and have thorasic and lumbar disc disease, plus alot of stomach problems and fibromialgia. But I've had this for years, so I think something else is going on. I have hemorrhoids, along with itching and tenderness in the vagina area,and using a new medicated cream, so I'm wondering if this is the cause. I'm not in a sexual relationship either for the past 2 years, so that isnt it.  I still am doing alot of search, and so far, nothing much yet. Hope someone can find the real problem here.  Many though have there vibrations starting differently, so i don't know if it would be related to mine.

I started having the "vibrations" in my pelvic area a few days ago. I wasn't sure what was going on or why this was happening. Lastnight, after intercourse, it started again. I realized that it also started after intercourse the other night as well. I wasn't having any pain until this morning and it feels like someone or something is pulling on the right side of my stomach. I'm not sure if its my ovaries or what it is. I am going to my gyn the 5th of december so I will mention this to her. I read most of the posts and didn't see any where this happened after intercourse. Also, I have had many LEEPS and Biopsies on my cervix due to cervical cancer, but I'm not sure if this has anything to do with the vibrations. It's been almost a year now since my last biopsy.

Yes, most assuredly seeking proper medical attention should be the first and always the best course of action.

If you read all the posts here (and many of us have), you may find that a lot of us have sought lots of regular and specialist medical attention, and have been told either "you're just stressed out" or "take this drug" or "there's nothing wrong with you". So yes, definitely seek medical attention first to rule out something serious like cancer or who knows what. But once they've ruled that out (for which I'm grateful), they have nothing left to tell you, and no relief to offer (short of taking Lyrica - and just Google THAT scary med sometime! and I didn't have nerve *pain*, so why would I want to take a drug for nerve pain, with all kinds of scary side effects to boot?).

I saw many doctors a couple of years ago and none of them had ever heard of this. I talked to a pharmacist and he said "so many women have this problem. It's really common." I realize the medical profession obviously doesn't have the answer or cure for so many things, but that they seem to be unaware of it when it apparently is somewhat frequent, was surprising to me. Some are starting to know about vulvodynia, but even then said the description does not fit what we here have experienced, since there is no pain.

Everyone posting things like "Oh I'm not the only one with this, I feel so much better!", you all are crazy! I know it can be reassuring to know you are not alone, but that is no reason not to do anything about it, it could still be a very serious issue. Even the rarest diseases still have hundreds of sufferers in the world, but they shouldn't just stop treatment because "It can't be anything too serious if this many have it too".

Millions have cancer, but it's certainly very serious. In short, you really shouldn't listen to anywhere here. Any one symptom could have dozens of causes, and just because it wasn't serious for someone doesn't mean it couldn't be life threatening to you.

Go seek proper medical attention instead of trying to get comfort in numbers!

I just started experiencing this last night, I sat on my bed and decided I was going to play some games on my laptop before going to sleep when I felt this vibrating feeling! I got up thinking I was sitting on my phone, it felt so weird that I started searching my bed for a phone, even thought someone was messing with me but the next day at work while I’m on the computer chair it happens AGAIN!! So now I’m like freaking out, no insurance so I’m just trying to search the web and get some answers that way.... If anyone knows where this comes from and why, it would be very helpful!!

Thanks!!
