Hi people,

i dont do usually do this, but i've been racking my brain for the past 5 month(last sexual intercourse).

since my last sexual encounterment in april , ive had a raging yeast infection which is usually followed by ezcema (i have vulvar ezcema) it cleared up but i found one hard bump on the right side which went away after 3 days . i had chills and hot flushes but i suffer from anxiety so i blamed on at since i was very stressed and anxious/ crying when found the bump. next month may i found a pimple alike spot on labia near the vagina entrance. i would have found it if it werent for my tampon, the string was rubbing on it and was uncomfortable; thats how i first saw it. given thatt 2 before my period i i used a bath bomb and bath was that was sitting in my cupbard for 2 years ( no judgement i thought it was okay to use since i never opened it ) i used sterioid cream which i usually use for ezcema flare up and it disapperared . it healed but when it was healing it went from a pimple to flat surface with white coating to a small line ? now july i shaved using a used razor & men shaving cream and next few days pimple like spot appeared everywhere (like it was all on the hair follicules & thrush ofc. went gp & they checked my area and said they could not see nothing wrong. i got medcine and cream and went away . ive tested for all std apart from herpes and im starting to think i might have it. or am i overthinking ? i never got the usual physical symtoms

let me know what you think, id aprecaite feedback

ps sorry for the wrong spelling and grammr english not my first language and im dyxleic too 😦

    id attach images but im too proud to have my vagina plastered all over the internet no way

    There's no way to help without seeing what it could actually be but my advice to you would be getting a swab the next time anything like this happens again or showing someone who works at a sexual health clinic a picture of it and surely they could give you the best answers and advice x
