I noticed the redness 2 nights ago, and it is more puffy/than usual. My vagina is also very dry, which isnt normal for me. I've also noticed that around the outside of the hole, the colour has become very pale. I was being sexually active the other night and he put a finger in, but I was not wet so it did hurt.

i also noticed a couple skin tag looking pieces of skin around my vagina as well.

I am just about to start my period, and am sexually active.

thanks!

    Hi julia,

    From what I can see, there's nothing obviously wrong or abnormal.

    Interestingly, you mention that you're about to start your period and the dryness you've noticed is consistent with this. I suspect your BF was just a little rough with his foreplay and things will settle down. The roughness/skin tag appearances you've highlighted are perfectly normal and are not genital warts or anything sinister.

    Rgds,

    Adhari
