I'm 23 years old & since last 1 & half months I've noticed this skin coloured itchy small soft bumps on my vulva mainly on my labia majora & few on sides.I'm not really sexually active but had oral sex with bf 1 month ago. No penetration has ever happened.

I do not shave

At first had noticed only 1 of these but now they are increasing in number & I now have 4 of these but their size has not changed since I've noticed them. Sometimes just itchy.

can't see a doc right now so please help me I'm kinda freaking out here.

    It will be difficult to say what it is based on the description, it could be so many different things...

    I went to the doctor just today for very similar issues. She examined it and explained to me that it is not herpes as I had thought. Mine are skin colored, small and round bumps. Because mine were 3-4 days old, she said that if it was in fact herpes, that they would already be oozing pus and be painful. I have pictures of mine if you would like to see??

      Did they resolve on their own or did the doctor prescribe you any medication?

      they are still there!! she gave me Doxycycline because she said I might have a different type of infection. I’m taking that now twice a week for 7 days. Not sure when the bumps will go away though
