Mysterious Bumps...
Posted: 07-01-07 17:10pm

So this is quite awkward but ever since I can remember I've had bumps on the inside of my labia. They're not painful, they just look like whiteheads but they never go away. They'll produce just like any whitehead but they don't go away. I am not sexually active so I don't know the possibilities of it being an STD. I haven't had any oral sex either. I'm trying to track down if it's something normal or if I should be worried. I've never been to a gyno either and would like to avoid that possibility.

If any one could help me with this sitch or explain some possibilities, I'd appreciate it. I've been avoiding it for way too long.

It's normal for there to be some bumps on the labia, almost like goosebumps. I have them too. So they're usually nothing to worry about.

However, going to the ob-gyn wouldn't hurt just to make sure since we can't really diagnose anyone over the internet. You're going have to go sooner or later anyway!

It really couldn't be herpes because she's never had sex before.

I have small bumps down there too, sometimes larger ones, bumps come and go!

Absolutely not from toilets. Honestly, you hang you vulva over the open part of the seat, you don't place your vulva down on the sides of the toilet, so first of all, how did herpes get on the seat? And why are you putting your butt down there? No one does that!

Secondly, again, as the poster said, she has no sexual experience, and unless one partner touched his/her own infected pubic area and then touched this poster's pubic area, then there's no way she'd get herpes from that, either.

Don't post myths about std transmission, please for the love of god. There are already enough lies out there already. This forum is meant as a place to eliminate those myths.

thank you for all your help, just as a side note to all of this, I've seriously think I've had it since I was born and it hasn't gotten worse and I don't think it will, it's almost like acne that never heals or goes away....


I feel a lot better already. I was mostly worried about it being an STD. As a curiosity question with herpes...with that outbreak, isn't it more of an infecton sort of deal? Like itching, burning and all that? Or does that not happen to everyone?
