Swollen Clitoris

I have been noticing that my vagina has become red and quite itchy for about a week now, and on the 6th day of this uncomfortable span, I have noticed that now my clitoris is swelling.  My clitoris is now swollen and red, and now my clitoris is bulbous-like but not sensitive to the touch. My clitoris almost resembles a small balloon, and has swollen to the size of a small gum-ball.  The area around my clitoris is red, sensitive, itchy, and burns.  Also now the inside wall of my vagina is beginning to swell, making my vagina look very red and swollen. Also my vagina has been extruding an excess amount of clear fluid with no distinct smell to it. I know that this might sound like symptoms of being sexually aroused, but I am certain as to what that feels like, and my vagina has never looked or felt like this before.

To help understand my situation, I have been sexually active for four years now, and I last had sex March 12 using a condom.  The other part that scares me is that I am not on birth control, so I'm not sure if my symptoms lead to the fact that I could be pregnant...Can someone please help me to understand what is wrong?

Sounds like a cyst.. I had the same thing happen, and it turned out to be a cyst right on my freaking clitoris. I went to the gyno, and with time and a lot of pain medication, the cyst "popped" and my clitoris returned to its normal size.

OMG right now I have the same exact problem!! I am fearful that it may be herpes because I already had the fluid checked out and it's not yeast nor bacteria!!!
Did you ever find out what it is???? Please please please let me know!!!! I'm scared!
Altho there is no blisters or noticeable cuts I'm still scared!! My clitoris is hard, it also looks like a balloon is inside there! I'm burning a little and was itching before the burning! Under the hood my clitoris had a hint of a purple color, mine hurts to be touched. I'm scared!! And right where the vaginal lips meet the clitoris hurts too... But it's just a little red!
Please let me know what you found out

maybe your allergic to latex condoms or maybe you need something like summers eve...use something called lemisol its at any spanish store it cost about 10 dollars...make sure when you buy underwear you wash them before you wear them they tend to fall on the floors and women tend to feel the material when they are buying them...eat lots of yougert and drink lots of water...douch with water and vineger only no fragrance douch..and maybe that should help...and make sure your partners hands are clean and his nails are cut short...hope you feel better...
