Sore in the genital area
I had a lump in the genital area. After a few days it oussed pus and blood. Then cleared up a week later a have another one.
Same deal hard at first still hard around the area now oussing pus and blood. Went to the doctor and was told it wasn't herpes but she doesn't know what cause it and thinks it may be infected glands. Anyone have any ideas? I have reach menopause.
Does that mater?

I just found a cyst like pimple right near my bikini line as I was masturbating, it has three small points (heads?). I am not sexually active and I'm a virgin so I have no idea what it could be! I didn't know what it was so after I cleaned up, I squeezed it and a large amount of pus and blood came out. I am very concerned and I don't want to ask anyone in my family about it. Could someone help!?!? I'm very scared it could be am std or staph!

I am so glad to know that this happens to only me. I am 26 and I have reoccurent boils on my genital area. Some small some big but either way they are painful. I googled them and found this website because I thought that it was herpes and was very scared. If it wasn't for this page my husband was going to have some explaining to do. I'm glad its not what I thought and I am making an appt asap with a doc to get some abx before they drive me insane.

I have been getting these for the last 5 years, i went to the doctors and saw 3 doctors and 4 specialists in two different hospitals with no success. I was Told i was sweaty (im not) i was told it was a bartholyns cyst (it isnt) i was also told it was viral and that every time i got one i would have to go to the docs for anti virals tablets. At this point i did my own research. I went through my life with a fine tooth comb and realised the only thing that had changed in my life was my contraceptive pill. I had got my new batch and the colour was slightly different. I stopped taking it immediately and the boils disspeared and didnt come back, I looked online and found some articles relating them to an imbalance of estrogen (dont know if its too high or to low tho). I then got pregnant and had no problems but now my little man is 8 months old they have returned. Im going to go back to my gp for blood tests to see if they can solve the mystery. Hope that helps someone out there!
Just to put your mind at ease a little for the future, I do not get them hardly EVER when I am purely sexually active with my husband, but when we are separated for a few weeks at a time (happens occasionally for work) and I masturbate, they pop up every time. ESPECIALLY if I use a vibrator. Hopefully you, too, will be fine when it comes to sex with a partner!
