Awesome! Hope all is going well~ Small cuts just sounds like irritation from something that may have been on your clothing/hands or something topical.. Nevertheless, the Dr will fix ya rightup! Enjoy your holiday!
as well we've always used protection and ive been on the pill. so i know thats not a worry for me,
thank you for your tip. i am going to see my doc tmrw. all i know is there are now small cuts when i did a mirror check and its tough to tell with my period but along with my period theres a slight strong odor. im beginning to think its a yeast infection of some sort? my partners supportive and have only been with one other person before me about 6 yrs ago and hes willing to get tested for anything hes faithful i know that. just scary cause i venever had this before...
Your best bet is to visit a GYN. It could be something as simple as skin irritation or a reaction to topical creams. On the contrary, it could be one of the many forms bacterial infections common in women..which you would need Rx to resolve..The type of discharge (if any) is a huge clue to whats going on with you. Please, please use protection each and every time you and your partner are active. There are many women & men who have contracted various "situations" from their first time partners..Keep in mind, you are "active" with anyone he has been active with..
Wish you all the best! Visit a GYN as soon as possible~
