What Causes Genital Bumps Post Unprotected Sex?
Question: Any idea what these bumps are? I had unprotected sex with a girl and they showed up.
Brief Answer:
Appear to be hair follicle infection, provide additional information
Detailed Answer:
Hi
Welcome to HCM
I have gone through the picture, they appear to be infection of hair follicle, rather than related to any STD.
How long it has been there, when did it start, means how long after unprotected sex.
Have you shaved the area, did it showed you after that.
To me based on the picture, they appear nothing serious, you can just observe, it will subside.
Don't scratch, use loose cotton undergarments, that will be enough.
Hope this helped.
Take care.
