Why Do I Have Painful Bumps on My Vagina?
I have bumps on the outside of my vagina. I am not sure if it is boils or a STD, but it is extremely painful and has been present for about 5 days. I have also run a low fever.

You might have genital boils. Those are painful, red lumps filled with pus. They come from bacteria or irritation. Fever could mean infection spreading. Use warm compresses and cleanliness to ease the pain. If bumps don't improve or worsen, see a gynecologist.

The few drops of blood your partner noticed may be due to the emergency contraceptive, as it can cause spotting. However, to be sure and for peace of mind, it is best to visit a gynecologist who can provide a proper evaluation and guidance.

I AM 20 yrs . My periods was 15 apr and 21 apr someone's sperm fall in my back then I washed. No sex no penetration just sperm fell in my back. Nd his penis just touch my vagina outside. This month my periods come 16 may , it's possible I'm pregnent or not
Female | Umisha
There isn’t a high possibility that you are pregnant. For pregnancy to occur, the sperm must get to the vagina and not just through touch on the outer parts. Also, the fact that your period came in time is a positive sign. If you’re still anxious about it, you could take a pregnancy test just for assurance.

After completing the course, within 3days i got my periods. Now my question is Is there any chances of getting again the irregular or multiple periods in a month? please advise
Female | 36
Irregular periods can occur due to hormonal fluctuations or stress. The medication you took may help regulate your cycle, but individual responses can vary. Monitor your cycle in the upcoming months. If you notice any unusual patterns, such as frequent periods or significant changes, it’s wise to consult your gynecologist. They can provide personalized insights and reassurance based on your health history.

I am pregnant and 2nd month is running. I have no symptoms of pregnancy except fatigue and have white or yellowish discharge. Is everything normal
Female | 31
Blackheads are small bumps that form when hair follicles get blocked by dead skin cells and excess oil. This can happen due to excess sebum, hormonal changes, or improper skin care. To reduce blackheads, use a gentle exfoliating scrub and a non-comedogenic moisturizer. Always clean your skin well to avoid irritation and prevent the urge to squeeze blackheads.

Hi there, I’m a sexually active female for reference. I have been sexually active for 5 months now and have never had an issue with pain related to sex. This was until the last couple of days. My boyfriend and I had not seen each other in 3 weeks and I just returned home from my trip. We decided to celebrate by having sex. Our celebration ended when I started feeling this immense pain. My boyfriend believes that it could have been from there not being enough lubrication. This pain has continued tor 3 days now, even hurting while not having sex. Sex definitely heightens the pain and discomfort. We have not had sex sense the pain started because it hurts too bad. It even hurts when it is being rubbed. The pain is located surrounding the opening of my vagina, both inside and out, seemingly on the side furthest from my butt. Does that make sense? This is a concern of mine and I was wondering if there was a logical explanation and perhaps an at home treatment? Along the same lines, not sure if they are related. My vagina has been very itchy. I have not noticed any irregular discharge. What may be causing this and what can be done? Also, I just recently started two new supplements. I notice my vaginal discharged had an odor. I started the “Rae’s vaginal balance” supplement and the “Azo cranberry” supplement in hopes to rectify the situation. Is there a reason why I stink and what can I do to fix the issue?
Female | 18
It seems like you might be having pain during intercourse because of dryness; however, it is necessary to visit a gynecologist in order to rule out any underlying medical issues such as infection or endometriosis. The itching and smell, which can also be caused by an infection or imbalance of your vaginal flora. It is preferably to be referred by gynecologist for a proper diagnosis and plan of action.

I am a 25 year old female who is currently 6 weeks pregnant. I have had 2 blighted ovums in 3 years apart. The scan has shown even this pregnancy is a blighted ovum. Is there a possibility of me having a normal pregnancy as I have had 2 blighted ovums already with 2 different partners. Please assist.
Female | 24
Blighted ovum, which is also called the synonym "anembryonic pregnancy," is a situation where a fertilized egg is implanted in the uterus, but the embryo does not develop. I understand your worries about having two blighted ovums one after the other were scary. The most important thing is to consult your doctor, who knows the potential causes and comes up with the possible solutions that allow you to have a healthy pregnancy in the future. You could have further examinations which are done to help decide if there is an underlying factor that is causing this to happen multiple times.

i am 16 (female) 43kgs , height- 4`11, have not had my period since almost 100 days. no history of sexual intercourse no history of previous medications
Female | 16
Not having a period of around 100 days is significant. Several factors could cause this lengthy gap. Stress impacts hormone levels, affecting menstruation. Weight fluctuations, whether gaining or losing, disrupt cycles too. Thyroid conditions or hormonal imbalances are other potential reasons. Consulting a gynecologist is wise to pinpoint the underlying issue. Remember, caring for physical and emotional well-being matters.

My periods bleeding is prolong to 10 days, this is the first time that im facing it.suggest me to stop period bleed
Female | 26
Around 5-7 days is typical for periods. But yours lasting 10 days can be frustrating. Hormonal imbalances, stress, medical conditions may cause prolonged bleeding. Try stopping bleeding by avoiding intense physical activity, resting enough, staying hydrated. If bleeding persists, see a gynecologist for advice to be safe.

I am a 20 year old girl. My menstrual cycle started on the 2nd of the previous month. But since then I'm getting less and less priods every day. It would be better to tell why this is happening??
Female | 20
It seems you are going through some changes in your periods, which may happen for different reasons. The most common way is through stress, which not only disrupts the hormones in your body but can also ultimately affect your cycle. Other reasons may be the lifestyle changes that you need, such as diet or exercise. Be sure to treat yourself right and eat the right foods, keep your body in shape, and be wary of stress. Schedule an appointment with your gynecologist if the irregular menstruation continues or if you have other issues.

After how many days can a mother drink milk after baby delivery?
Female | 30
Milk can swiftly be consumed by most mothers right after childbirth. Milk is nutrition-packed. The milk might be hard if you feel gassy, bloated, and experience a fussy baby after breastfeeding it might be hard for you to digest your milk. If lactose intolerance is suspected, you can switch to lactose-free milk or alternative dairy-free products. Listen and always get an opinion with your gynecologist if you have any concerns.

2years back I used unwanted kit to abort foetus..now also iam pregnant.is it okay to use unwanted kit again to abort
Female | Bhavani
Using medication intended for pregnancy termination without professional guidance can lead to various complications, including incomplete abortion, infection, or excessive bleeding. Each pregnancy is unique, and your previous experience may not reflect how your body will respond now. I strongly recommend consulting a gynecologist who can give you personalized advice and support. They can help you understand your options and, if necessary, provide safe, effective care.

Female | 20
You skipped your monthly period, feel nauseous, and urinate more than usual. It could be that your body has changed due to pregnancy. In the case of being sexually active, one can do an at-home pregnancy test as a way of definite verification. Visit a gynecologist to find the solution.

Female | 23
Occasionally, stress or changes in the daily schedule can cause the period to be delayed. Besides, being physically active or shifting in weight can also be why. If you have unprotected sex, it's good to check if you are pregnant. A home pregnancy test kit will be able to tell you.

Female | 25
Withdrawal bleeding typically lasts 3 to 7 days. If you have been experiencing bleeding for 10 days, it may be best to seek advice from a gynecologist. Prolonged bleeding could be influenced by several factors, including hormonal changes or other medical conditions. Symptoms to note include unusual heaviness or clotting. It’s important to stay hydrated and monitor your condition. If you feel any discomfort or have concerns, consulting with your doctor will provide you with personalized guidance and reassurance.

I am 19 year old female...I had unprotected sex on 27 April for the first time and within 45 min I took the unwanted 72 tablet and my periods are 3 days delay so when will my periods come??
Female | 19
Emergency contraception like Plan B can throw your cycle off whack because of all the hormones it contains. It should only be a few days late. And if it doesn’t show up within another week or two, and feel free to take that pregnancy test.

Hello my name is Aisha. I have a concern. I had unprotected sex on the whole 5 days on my fertilization and ovulation. Now I'm 7 days late on my period. Showing little pregnancy symptoms such as dizziness and insomnia, nausea but no vomit. I took a pregnancy text and it is still negative. February 15 was my ovulation day
Female | 23
Taking a pregnancy test is wise, but results can be inaccurate early on. Late periods happen due to stress, hormone shifts, and irregular cycles. Dizziness, sleeplessness, and nausea without vomiting also arise from hormonal changes. Wait a few more days then test again. If still concerned, consulting a gynecologist for guidance is recommended.

Female | 23
Sometimes, when your period is late, it can be a sign that something is going on in your body, not just pregnancy. Stress, hormone imbalances, or changes in your routine can also affect your cycle. For pregnancy fears, a test will be able to tell the truth. Remember, always use protection against unwanted pregnancy when you have sex. If you're searching for ways to stop getting pregnant, there are options like adoption pills or injections but it's better to talk to a gynecologist for personalized advice.
