Hi,
Fordyce spots or sebaceous glands are small white or yellow-white bumps inside your vulva. These spots are also found on the lips and cheeks. They normally first appear during puberty and you tend to get more of them as you age. Fordyce spots are painless and not harmful.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
