I wrote on here about a week ago concerned that I had HPV because I experienced itching, stinging, little bumps on the inside of my vagina, and other discomforts. However most people told me it looked like VP which is harmless, that gave me much relief however I couldnt explain the itching and other discomfort. Slowly new things started to happen, a couple days ago I started spotting very dark brown discharge. I know this can happen sometimes before or after a period however I am not expecting my period for another week and I am expecting it even later because i took plan B. The discharge was very unusually as this doesnt happen to me often and it was alarmingly dark. The morning after i started to experience the discharge I got up to use the restroom and before I got to pee brown fluidy discharge came out of my vagina, it felt like what i would imagine your water breaking, it was very strange like nothing ive felt before. Later that day my discharge became more red like blood and i am still spotting blood today however it doesnt look like normal period blood. Its a red/brownish color and I am having small clots that almost look like coffee grounds. Also i am starting to experience small sores around the outside of my vagina which im not sure is due to itching or irritation from my panty liner. Can someone please help me??

    so i just left my doc, she had no idea what vp was....(i did not see my normal GYNO) but i had her look at my places an she said there normal. i kept asking about warts and she said they look nothing like warts. she said the key to looking for warts is looking for coliflower. i thought i might have a UTI...cause i have some pressure an pain but it was negative. they are gonna call me later with results for yeast and bacterial infection. will update!!

      update: i visited the doctor, she examined me and is running test for bacterial infections and stds. she explained to me that the discharge and bleeding is probably due to taking plan b but i still dont know what the itching and sores on the outside of my vagina are due to. my itching is better but still there, i have yet to get my test results back but i will update you when i get them.

      just got my results, I tested negative for stds and yeast which is really weird because i am still experiencing itching ans now have bad sores/rash on the outside of my vulva as well as white watery discharge. the sores are very sensitive and itchy and are excreting minimal pus i think. im not sure what i have and am still worried.

      Did they take a swab of the places? Do you maybe sweat a lot down there....that could cause it rubbing against the area?

      my doctor swabbed the inside of my vagina however the sores hadnt developed fully for her to seem worried or swab them. maybe due to my panty liner or pants?not sure, i will insert a picture below

      I think the soreness looks due to irritation from wearing panty liners to often. Maybe stop wearing them and only wash with cool water - no soap and see if it improves.
