My ex bf and I broke up in May. I haven't had sex since then. Today, October 15 I started developing some weird bumps near my vagina opening. They do not hurt and extremely painless. I didn't even know they were there until today. Do you guys think its genital warts?

    I'm not sure, but I think they might be.  That's not the only thing they could be, but you should see a doctor.  You could either see your GP, or if you're in the UK, you could go to a genitourinary medicine (GUM) clinic - google "GUM clinic near me" for details.

    If you could update this thread and tell us what the doctors say, it would be appreciated.  Good luck.

    Genital warts aren't usually a big problem btw, and they're caused by different strains of the HPV virus from the ones that are more dangerous.

    they appear to have the correct texture of a genital wart im afraid. however warts are extremely hard to diagnose without a biopsy which is extremely hard to obtain.
