swollen

Avatar n tn I am 20 wks pregnant and lately my labia has been swollen and itchy with some visable white discharge. On one side the fold between my labia majora & minora has a crack that has bled slightly when I've wiped. I go to the doctor in a few days but was wondering if I should call him now or just wait until I see him. Any suggestions? Thanks!
1119887 tn?1259175420 i called the doc and they said bleeding is not normal and i hav an apt in 2 days but all my symptoms are gone and im afraid that they wont find out whats wrong and the next time i have sex ill bleed agian and it will hurt like it did the last time when my labia was swollen.
Avatar f tn As I surf the Web many sites tell me it is common during pregnancy for this to happen. What it doesn't tell me is how to (deal, cope, minimize, OR HELP) For the past few days now my labias are both swollen and itchy at times. I am very clean and wipe front to back. I wear cotton underware with a liner now because of some discharge. I was just hoping someone out there has a few tips or tricks on how to survive !! I am 26 weeks now and I pray rhis doesn't last the rest of my pregnancy! !
Avatar f tn It's not a problem. The labia takes on extra blood during sex just like the penis when erect. So it's normal for the labia to become larger and redder. Enjoy.
Avatar n tn It goes down in a stip from the bottom of my vaginal opening to the top of my labia. It is still there and is still very purple and slighly swollen, it does not hurt or itch or burn. I thought that it was just bursing from maybe rubbing the extra skin wrong or maybe the extra skin getting pinched during sex. It has never happened before and I have been sexual active for almost a year. Just wondering what this could be? Any help?
Avatar f tn I developed one of the right side during my last pregnancy and they can become very swollen and uncomfortable and even painful. It gets worse the further along you are but typically goes away after birth. This time mine showed up around 13 weeks. Mine also itches as well. Talk to your doctor about it to be sure this is what it is. If it is there really isn't anything you can do about it but watch it and as I said it should resolve after birth. Mine went away almost immediately.
1885931 tn?1371771436 I noticed yesterday that my vagina started to swell and its swollen even more since... there's no pain to it or odor so I doubt its infection? But has anyone else experienced this? Do I need to see my doctor about this or anything? Does it just go down on its own?
Avatar n tn Has there been any correlation between women who have had problems with swollen labia after sex and their partners being smokers. Theres only two men I have had this problem with and they are both smokers. I'm wondering if there's some allergy to the nicotine that transfers during oral sex.
Avatar m tn I have noticed that when ever i have sex using a condom with my partner it itches badly, so i have been having sexual intercourse with him with out a condom from i found out i am alergic to it. However, i realized this morning after sex and he had his discharge on my vagina as he pulls out soon after it feels huge. Upon looking i realized the labia was very swollen on both sides and looking scary like its going to pop. am not feeling pain now but it feels uncomfortable beteew my legs.
Avatar f tn I can hardly walk and my labia are swollen. I really don't know what to do. I tried ice but it really doesn't help. And it sometimes itches so bad I can't help but scratch it. Is anyone else experiencing this?
Avatar n tn It is making my whole labia swollen. I have posted a picture, please help and advice would be greatly appreciated.
Avatar n tn A couple of days ago during sex i felt a pinch and then burning in my labia, and it was enough to interrupt intercourse. I looked down and almost fainted because my inner labia had started to swell up and continued to swell. I went to ER and by then it was huge, it was the size of a lemon, no joke. They didn't know what it was and sent me home telling me to come back if it hadn't gone away in a few days.
Avatar n tn Last night I was having sexual intercourse with my partner and this morning I noticed that my right labia is very swollen and purple at the start of it. My left labia is fine. There is no itching and no redness. It is very sore, however. Should I go to the doctor? Did a blood vessel or vain break? Is it dangerous?
Avatar n tn I use soft cups during day and always Infiniti at night. The pain is the same with each. During pregnancy I had SPD. That was UNBAREABLE. This hurts to move, stand, sit... I tried ice, I tried moist heat. I tried an Advil. I even called my doctor but they said if no fever to wait a few days and keep an eye on it. It does feel like an intense throb. A bruise on surface and deep in tissue. Least we are not alone.
Avatar f tn Hey ladies tmi but is anyone else experiencing swollen labia and clit? I'm 28 weeks and ftm just wondering if others are having the same, esp after sex.
433711 tn?1204206989 I am 16 weeks +5 days pregnant. I previously had a miscarriage prior to this pregnancy and expirienced the same thing but never asked my doctor because I never seen him during my last pregnancy and its only been happening in the past 3-4 weeks. I will be seeing my doctor next tuesay but would like to know what it is now. After sexual intercourse usually, if I dont take a shower right away.. my outer labia becomes swollen.
1032669 tn?1252456404 Ok, I am 36 years old this is my third pregnancy...and I have a swollen purple deformed labia. I called my aunt who is an OB Nurse practitioner and she said that it is a vaginal varicose vein that is common with pregnancy (I I never has this before and no varicose veins any where else)..................anyone else have/had this. I feel deformed; like I am not self conscious enough while pregnant I get this!!!! Anyone??????
Avatar f tn Last night was more aggressive and longer than usual and I went home with a swollen right labia. I felt the discomfort last night but I didn't see it til this morning. I'm assuming it's just from the roughness of sex and drying up a couple times but other articles I have read say it can be a sympton to UTI. I'm a little nervous and just hope the discomfort goes away soon. Has this ever happened to anyone before? And does it happen less frequently as time goes on?
793879 tn?1244511586 Hi, This is a common problem and most often the reason for it is a lack of lubrication during sex. This can cause excess friction, especially on the labia, and cause the pain and swelling you describe. Many women find that they can enjoy multiple episodes of sex by using an added water-based lubricant during intercourse. Others may need more foreplay prior to the first intercourse to allow their natural lubricants to build up. I will suggest you to avoid sexual intercourse for a few days.
Avatar f tn t caught anything from him but for the past few months i have noticed i have had a swollen labia and have yellow discharge. it is very sore to touch and is itchy. i find it extremely difficult to wear inderwear because if it is touched it is very sore. what could this be?
Avatar n tn if i have a swollen labia minora, itching, vaginal discharge and burning sensation what type of stds do i have?? i've never had this before.. CAN SOMEONE PLEASE ANSWER ME!
Avatar f tn This is highly unusual because in my experience, every outbreak starts with a bump on my right outer labia and as of right now there is no bump on my right labia. Also, my lymph nodes are not swollen (they usually get huge). For all of my past outbreaks, i would get prodromal symptoms followed immediately by an outbreak, so this is strange for me.. Also, later today i found that I had a second bump that looks exactly like a large whitehead higher up on my inner left labia that is very itchy.
Avatar f tn Four days ago I broke out in hives all over my body, that only lasted 2 days. Yesterday I noticed my right labia is swollen and I have had creamy white discharge over the last 3 days. Did a HPT it returned a negative result. Am I thinking to much or could I possibly be pregnant ??
1201187 tn?1265391716 but recently or at least its happened twice now, after intercourse my clitoris has enlarged / swollen into my labia on the right side. i noticed it when we took a shower afterwords. i felt my clit and it felt elongated into the right side of my labia like it was just pushed over to the side.. its really weird and i am freaked out!! the first time the swelling went down after awhile but this time its taking longer..
Avatar n tn since several days ago the skin around my vagina is itchy and since yesterday I noticed that my labia majora is a bit swollen. it doesn't hurt, just when I touch it harder I feel a bit of pain and also the skin between my vagina and anus burns. I also noticed that the skin around my clitoris is a bit swollen it doesn't hurt it's just a bit itchy. I haven't had sexual intercourse (I'm not sexually active) so I don't know what's causing it.
Avatar f tn 19 weeks and last night I started itching down there and was thinking it was from hair growing back took hot shower and it relieved the itchyness well tonight it happened again but my labia was swollen. I have had kidney infections and they now have me on antibiotics til the baby is born. Im not sure if its a yeast infection I have had them in the past and it was never like this and I dont have any discharge. Have any of you ladies experienced this.
