Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I shaved my vaginal area about 2 weeks ago and I had used coconut oil instead of shaving cream because I heard it lessens irritation. A couple days after I noticed pink/white bumps on my labia minora area. I also douched as well. I ve never noticed them before and I m also sexually active so I m really scared about it being an std. However, my partner gets tested so I doubt that s what it is. I have a picture as well.
HI Well come to HCM I really appreciate your concern, such lesion could be due to infection and folliculitis could be likely try some antibiotic cream and best would be "Povidone Iodine" cream avoid using coconut oil it may some time cause infection too, hope this information helps, take care and have a nice day
