Not sure what it is.. vagina swollen?
I'm 13 and 5 months old, have discharge for 1 year and 4 months already, coming 1 year 5 months.
I'm really wondering if anything's happening to me. Recently, i've discovered that my vagina was itching (not enormously badly), and, yes i did scratch it a little, close to about 2 weeks ago.
A few days back, when i checked my vagina, i realised that the nouns to the south left of my vagina HOLE was a bit enlarged, possibly swollen. When i getnly poked it, and compared the tendernss with the other side, it felt for a moment.. numb.
I've also got eczema, a common skin condition, which produces little bumps after continuous scratch. That's why, i'm wondering if my vagina is swollen or has the eczema travelled down there.
I've also read that when you are expecting your extent, your vagina gets a little swollen.
So, am i (1) expecting my interval, (2) having eczema down there, or (3) is my vagina swollen/ infected?
PS: i haven't experienced menarche (start of periods) all the same
Answers: Congratulations, you are a very switched on young woman!
You mentioned a discharge? Is it clear and sometimes a little milky, but doesn't smell or look like cottage cheese? Then this is middle-of-the-road.
If a discharge is white/green/brownish and resembles thick cottage cheese and has a strong fishy odour or a cheesy odour next you probably have an infection.
The most common infection, especially contained by young ladies such as you is Thrush.
If the above symptoms match yours, transmit your Mum that it is itchy and you have a little soreness and you dream up you have thrush. She may take you to the Dr's or lately purchase some cream over the counter. It is no big deal.
Thrush can happen as a result of taking antibiotics. Antibiotics butcher bacteria and we need correct bacteria in some places to maintain us healthy. Scratching can also cause thrush, it harms the deft lining of the vagina and the scratched area can agree to bugs in.
Also, the vagina changes as you approach your interval, you are correct and it may even be that normal changes adjectives. Just inside the vagina you will feel rings of muscle. These can feel pretty lumpy and bumpy and also right inside you can grain the cervix, which is the opening to the womb. This has no actual backbone endings and so can feel pretty numb.
If you are still experiencing discomfort, itchiness or discharge that I mentioned above, sermon to your Mum, she will know what to do.
Take Care
ADDITION
If you have the same slightly washed out, pale discharge, it sounds completely normal to be honest. It sounds as though your body is merely gearing up for your period. Basically it is your hormones that are making you have a discharge and your body is 'practising'
A bad discharge smells moderately nasty. Have you ever smelled natural yoghurt that have started to go off? Natural yoghurt smells sour and to be exact what bad discharge smells of. Sometimes a specific bacterial infection can cause a severely bad fish smell. But this tends to single happen after the woman has become sexually busy. As well as this thrush makes you a bit sore and very reddened and swollen; it is sore to the touch too.
(1) if the discharge have a brownish color, u r expecting ur period sometime soon
(2) eczema ? no .. i dont think it's THAT serious
(3) ur vagina react VERY fast to anything even light scratch , its skin migh even change right infront of ur eyes so yeah weird things might occur
my advice is to keep verbs down there, change underwear 3 times a daylight, dont wash with fragranced soap and if it feel itchy rinse it with warm almost hot river.
nothing to worry around ^_^
I bring back a thorny lump below when I return with my extent. What is this?
Nipple Question, please be repectful...?
Is in that something wrong next to me ?
