Help getting worried. Anyone see this before?

Posted , 3 users are following.

Noticed white lump internally few weeks back, thought it was scarring as I bled for at least a week after foreplay and intercourse however white lump/skin tag appeared externally shortly after and they seem to keep growing, no pain or itching. Gp doesn't know what they are, not bacteria infection. 3 month waiting list for gynaecologist. Any help would be appreciated.

      Thanks for your reply. GP didn't think it was warts and can't get tested for it for months. What makes you sure so I can try push for the test and get treatment?

      Hey, it's gonna be all right. Have you had the HPV vaccine? There is treatment to remove the wart, usually a gynecologist or dermatologist. I suggest you do the pap smear too, because depending on the type of hpv it can cause pre-cancerous lesions in the cervix. It is important to monitor the cervix for 5 years, do the pap smear every 6 months and the hpv PCR collected from the cervix.

      Use a condom during sexual intercourse if you are single. If you are married, I recommend that you tell your husband to go see a doctor for warts, because warts can be small and subclinical, not easily seen.
