18F, does anyone know what these 3 white things are on my clit and how do i get rid of them?

18f ive had these 3 white bumps on my clit for a while now and i want to just get rid of them but i dont know how. I wash them regularly and lift the hood back to clean it. Theyre very sensitive sometimes and i cant pop them either. Ive done some research and its seems like they could be smegma? But i have no idea how to get rid of it. Any tips?

is this possible for pregnancy

This post might be tmi, and i just want to say i have severe anxiety, and tokophobia so please refrain from being rude or mean in the comments i know you need piv sex to get pregnant, but my anxiety gets the best of me sometimes and blocks out all the facts.

On july 3, i had a sexual encounter where before my partner started touching me i sanitized his hands with hand sanitizer, and wet non alcoholic wipes multiple times before letting him touch me. He then proceeded to touch me through an underwear barrier nothing ever went inside of me everything was external contact so just stimulation, but then he wiped his precum with a scrunched up tissue and to calm my anxiety down he sanitized his hands 3 times, wiped them multiple times, and proceeded to touch me without a barrier, after this situation i did get semen on my hands, i wiped it off with a towel and sanitized my hands and proceeded to clean myself with multiple tissues but im scared somehow while i was cleaning myself some sperm got in.

i did have an encounter in may that was similar to this ( through a barrier, wiped hands, and only stimulation.) and got my period after in june which was pretty heavy, with clots and saw my uterine lining shedding, but my mind starts convincing me that it’s a cryptic pregnancy, or implantion bleeding.

Now it’s july 5, and i’m supposed to get my period my last period was june 6, and it came 4 days early in june. what im worried about is why i have no pms symp, aside a bit of sore, heavy boobs and that’s my cause i’ve just been poking them too much, and i usually always get acne breakouts on my upper chest but now there’s nothing which is starting to worry me on how late my period is gonna be if im barely getting any symp right now. the thought of being pregnant literally annihilates my insides cause it would literally ruin my life. i know i should’ve been smarter and knowing my anxiety i shouldn’t engage in sexual actions, but i would really appreciate someone to help and educate me on why this is unlikely.

I’m 28 weeks and I cannot stop being in pain.

My back has been hurting so badly with this pregnancy it’s become unbearable.

My upper back right below my neck to my bra line constantly hurts so badly in my sleep it’s waking me up.

Then my lower back in the hip area the pain is so bad it locks my entire back at times or when I get up I’m in such severe pain I have to have assistance until I can walk normal again.

I’ve spoken with my Dr and she swears this is normal and fine but I’m in such immense pain every single day I don’t know what to do or how I’m just supposed to “ignore it”.
I also don’t want to take otc pain pills daily I just feel that’s not healthy or normal for my baby and I.

Herpes Or Yeast

I went to the doctor to get swabbed, they told me it looks like herpes but he wanted to swab it. It hurts really bad when I use the bathroom other than that nothing just itching really badly at times that’s why I put the cream on the 2nd photo. But the first photo is how it looked yesterday and today the 2nd one. I wanted to post on here to see if anyone had anything similar looking and it turned out to just be irritation from a yeast infection ? I’ll know soon but it’s making me worry.

I feel like somethings wrong or am i making it up in my head?

Why am I(22F) experiencing almost all these symptoms even though my hormone tests came back normal? I am really hairy; my breasts, stomach, face, and other parts of my body have visibly thick/coarse hair. After walking outside, my stomach gets extremely bloated and rock-hard. My periods are highly irregular; sometimes they are delayed by a month, at one point I didn't have it for a year, and another time I had it twice in a single month—basically, the dates never match, and my groin/pelvic area aches for weeks until it finally starts. It is incredibly painful, to the point where I can't even stand up. I know for a fact that I don't have cysts. My bleeding used to always last for 7 days, but now it has changed; sometimes it’s 7 days, sometimes 2 days, sometimes 7 days again but very light, and sometimes 3 days. My emotions are always a mess because of this. Lastly i did talk to a obgyn about this but they just want to prescribe birth control pills without diagnosing and i don't want that. What could be wrong with me, or am I just making it up in my head? (I did have this test done when i was on my period but months before i got the same test done and the results were still the same)

Does this look like herpes? I’m going to get swabbed at the doctor tomorrow. I have had burning in this area since July 2nd. I’ve tried my best not to scratch but it gets itchy when I pee sometimes. I’m sad and in denial. The rest of my vaginal area looks normal.

Is this normal? Or if not what is it???

Apologies if this is not an adequate forum to discuss this. If this is true, please disregard.

I have times when I like look in the mirror or a photo and be like that's not me when like it is me but it genuinely doesn't feel right like something's off? Or like I'm sitting somewhere and I look at me legs or hands or smthn and I'm like those aren't mine or sitting and are like I'm not supposed to be here, like this isn't my body? And also like I sometimes will feel like I'm looking at everything in 3rd person??? It's so weird. It used to happen like rarely but it's almost everyday now. And it genuinely throws me for a loop. And it'll happen with places sometimes too or other people? Like "you look like so and so but something's wrong you can't be" or "this might look like this place but it's lying". And also I have the constant feeling of "they're lying, waiting to trick me and watch me fall" with almost everyone. Even super close people and strangers. I feel like the latter is just me being paranoid??? But I genuinely have times when I have to find ways to remind myself I'm human, and in the past that had resulted in SH as I could see and sometimes feel the things reminding myself I'm me. But sometimes it's not just that I'll see myself in the mirror but I'd be so convinced it's not me. It really shakes me to the core especially looking back at times. :P anywho anyone else get this? Or like if I'm crazy anyone know anything about it so I can research it? My therapist is currently not responding to me pfft (summer Vaca since I use one through a college)

Can a OBGYN pleas help us understand this heart beat in 6 week embryo.

We are in the Hell Holes of IVF. I’m not going to add to much detail here now about the journey, rather I’m coming asking for help as to what this second “transient” in the heartbeat may be?

The image with the clear second transient is from last Thursday 7/2/26 and the other image from 4 days earlier when we first heard this sweet nugget of life’s heartbeat Monday 6/29/26. We can confirm no second embryo implanted or second gestation SAC seen.

We need a miracle we know. We are still at the IVF clinic but the girls are young and not experienced. We were asked to go to ER yesterday because of hCG.

I don’t want to focus on any of that, I’m just needing a true IVF nurse or Sonographer or OFBYn to tell us what they see here. Ready to take the news…

does anyone know what this could be? i’m tired of being dismissed lol

this is a very random post i am unsure if i can post it as a patient but i want to ask whether any radiologists or people with MRI knowledge/anyone who’s experienced the same thing can INDICATE to me what this glowing mass may be in my pelvis area? as a back story i am a female, i got this MRI done when i was 19 years old (i am 20 now), the radiologists and actual doctors i’ve seen have been useless! the first set of radiologists “ didn’t notice “ the glowing mass, and i got a second opinion from different radiologists and got hit with the “ we are unsure but it is probably nothing “ no follow up tests or anything. i dont know if this is just because i am a young girl i am being dismissed, but no one can give me answers as to what it may be, hence why i am asking here. i am aware that radiologists cannot diagnose issues but it would be so helpful if anyone can help point me in the right direction! and as a side note whether anyone else notices anything else out of the ordinary since these scans are being dismissed lol. i do apologise if this post isn’t allowed but im desperate, all my personal hospital information is hidden!

Showing what a yeast infection looks like. It's healed now, but think it's important to show people what it can look like

This is just one example. And can look different to everyone.

It was caused by missing a day of HRT treatment. Ouch!!

Contact dermatitis or something else?

I’m 24F who’s having a recurring problems in vaginal itching since last April. At first, I consulted a dermatologist due to excessive itching that I was feeling back then after trying a different brand of menstrual pad and i developed bumps on my labia skin area. The dermatologist suggested that it was maybe contact dermatitis and prescribed me some ointment (Calmaperol and Dosetil) and Desloratadine to reduce the itchiness and irritation. It calmed down after a few days and but the itchiness was still there though it lessened as I was taking some antihistamines.

Two months later, the intense itching has returned. I usually don't shave anymore, but my pubic hair felt like it was poking and irritating my skin, so I trimmed it. When the poking sensation got worse, I decided to shave the irritated area. Unfortunately, I accidentally cut the bumpy skin, causing it to bleed. I check the area frequently, so I know for a fact there were no sores or blisters beforehand, just a rash on my labia that bled after I shaved.

Any ideas what might be causing this?

NSFW Vaginal Cuts

This is really embarrassing but I have these cuts and I didn’t know how bad they were until I took a picture with flash. The area looks a little swollen. The rest of my groin area looks normal. I shave with a razor. I’m scared I somehow have an STD. I’m hoping it’s just because I’ve had repeated rough sex without lube for a long time. It’s not my first time having this feeling of cuts but I’ve never examined them. Could it be from repeated trauma to that area? There is no itching except for when I pee and wipe . My discharge doesn’t smell I’m just having a lot of it but that’s not unusual for me around this time of month.

Pubic mound tender

Hi thank you for any help! The area circled is slightly swollen but both that side and the right side are tender (I can still walk and move without issue). I’m not sure if it’s a lymph node since it doesn’t feel like it’s anything behind it. My cycle is supposed to start in the next 1-2 days but I have never had this tenderness or swelling before, so just trying to figure that out.

Of note, I did notice this started yesterday mid morning after I was holding my pee overnight

Any idea/tips on how I can reduce the scars?

These are scars from ingrown hairs. If I’m wearing loose clothes for a while I notice that they change colour/get flatter. I don’t know if it’s my eyes playing tricks on me but when I’m in work clothes and it’s rubbing against something it turns redish and more solid if that makes sense. Shaved was last year and the other pic is from today. But it’s been like this for years.
