HPV?

Hi!

I have some bumps on my labia minora, painless, pink in colour and I am scared of what it might be. I had genital warts 6 years ago but they looked differently and they were outside the vagina. I made an appointment already but till then I am checking pictures and cook my brain with possibilities. I am posting a picture too.

Anyone experienced the same?

Thank you!

    Hi, they look like VP and are consistent with the characteristics of them as well. Warts will cluster and will not look linear as these do. Do you recall them looking like this when you had warts ?

      Hey, Kelly! Thank you for the reply!

      No, they looked totally different, like those cauliflower pictures.

      the middle ones are the ones that do not look like VP. the other tubular ones look like VP to me. Are these new or always have been here but are now more ?

      I never noticed them before, so I think they are new.

      Meanwhile I went for STD tests and HPV test, and I am waiting for the results.

      Thank you!

      Well thats good to hear you gotten them tested. Did they do a swab test or blood ? Did they give you any insight if they looked like warts or VP how i suspect they are ? I would ask for you to try and take a different pic angle, However they moderate ant take forever to release the pic.

      They did a swab test for the HPV test, and they took blood and urine for the rest of the tests. Ive been in two places, and the first doctor, she said clearly it is HPV, ignored the VP possibility, and in the second place they told me it doesnt look like HPV warts. I am so confused, but I am waiting for the results.

      I tried to add another picture but it has been deleted 😦.

      I am still checking other people`s pictures and read their stories untill I will know for sure what it is ... I am freaking out.

      Thank you so much for replying me. It helps me a lot.

      hopefully the swab test comes out negative. thats what i'm leaning on as what it is. Thats doctors for you....one may yes and the other no, thats why test are the oy true answer to what it could be. Not knowing just makes your mind go crazy, hopefully you get your results in a timely manner . Have you tried applying apple cider vinegar to see if they turn white ? This forum/ community moderating is getting little annoying , i dont understand what consist of proper and improper pictures. I hope they at least explain why it was deleted...

      So in the end I had a pap smear which came out good, but the HPV test shows high risk strains.. So I guess this is what it is now..
