swollen itchy labia during pregnancy

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! !

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!

My labia minora is very itchy and is now red and slightly swollen, probably from scratching so much. I've never had a yeast infection before, but I was recently prescribed a cream to deal with a fungal infection of my eczema on my arm. The little research I've done seems to indicate the fungal infection and the yeast infection share similar sources. It is really itchy but no discharge or any other symptoms. Is it a yeast infection?

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.

Unfortunately, today I woke up to one really itchy bump on my left labia. 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..

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?

My legs were swollen few weeks back... I do a lot of walking... Swelling is not present anymore... But there is lot of itching in my palm and sole... What problems might b there with my kidney and liver??? What measures I have to take???

I know for a couple times through my pregnancy I have gotten thrush on the outside of my labia and sometimes it would be a little painful but it was itchy too. If not then there must be some nerves that are maybe acting up....there is actually a lot more blood flow to that area when you are pregnant. It's too bad that your doctor couldn't help you or look into it. Have you tried cold compresses and maybe some tylenol for the pain?

Labia is very red, painful and swollen on right side. Sometimes very itchy, have red blisters on inside of labia, started with being very itchy (drove me nuts) had white spots on outside of labia which were very itchy and kind of peeled, what is going on?

I rushed home to scratch and then it immediately become swollen. Five years later it is still incredibly itchy on the left side only and appears a bit red and swollen. I brought it up to a gyn last year while getting a pap but he brushed it off as hormones and I wasn't assertive enough to push the issue and explain it more. Recently got it checked out and was prescribed Clotrimazole-Betamethasone. I've only been using it for a week but haven't really noticed a difference.

I have a swollen left labia majora that started 3 days ago (on saturday night). I noticed an itchy weird feeling in my left labia, so after itching just a bit (sorry) I looked down there and the left labia majora was very swollen! But only the one side. I looked closer, and it seemed to have a small lump or two on it. I had sex on friday, one day before this happened.

Why does my labia swell during sex?! It looks like it gets filled with liquid (my juices). Been happening for about a month. My doctor said it was normal and my vagina is changing but it gets super swole and can’t be normal. It takes about a day for it to shrink back.

Hello Mysteriesallover, There are quite a number of reasons why you might have labia swelling. You may have a yeast infection, or other standard Urinary Tract Infection/bacterial infection that may require antibiotics. You could have something as simple as vaginal itching from excessive moisture or heat. In a case like that, drug stores do carry a number of creams that will help alleviate the itching, but it is very important that you discover the reason for the itching.

After i received rough oral sex i noticed that my vagina's 'lips' or labia were swollen!! I'm not itchy, and it doesn't hurt. They're just really swollen. I've taken advil and i'm icing it down. I'm trying really hard not to panic and i really don't want to go to the doctor! Help??!

Secondly, It can be due to vaginal infections or STD’s like Chlamydia or thrush (red,sore,itchy vagina along with pain during sex and slight increase in the vaginal discharge may be present), Gonorrhea(Itchy, red, or swollen vagina and Pain during intercourse, urinating or abdominal pain may be present) or Trichomoniasis(red, very itchy vagina along with greenish, frothy discharge is present). Thirdly it can be due to dermatitis or eczema.

t actually have sex but he did finger me. two days after I began to feel an itchy burning sensation down there. My labia is extremely irritate and my clitoris and urethra are extremely itchy as well as swollen and irritable. especially when I have to pee. the left side of the wall near my clitoris is the most irritated it also seems very dry and is only relieved when I put water there. I realize that if I dab that in between skin between my clitoris and labia I get a few specks of blood.

So, I'm almost seventeen and still a virgin. When i was like, 7, i my right labia began to become swollen and red, leathery and sometimes itchy. Sometimes its to the point where i can't feel anything. Ive been to 4 different gynos, they all say switch my detergent, my soap, etc., and ive tried all of it. Nothing has helped, everyone basically gave up on me. After I touch down there or anything, its definitely worse, and thongs and stuff make it worse too, but it never really goes away.

I have been having an itchy labia for about 6-8 weeks now. Prior to that it was only about 3-4 days prior to my period. For about 6-8 weeks the itching is constant. And I mean 24/7. NOTHING I do is helping. No cream (vagisil, summer's eve, benedryl) is helping at all. Any suggestions or thoughts??????

Im 28 weeks with my third baby. Tmi... But my labia is swollen i am extremely itchy to the point i feel raw and sore. Now my doc told me its due to the extra blood floe and pressure. I had it at the end of my 2nd pregnancy minus the itching. What should i try. I dont wash with soap down there i dont use lotions in that area. Im lost n still have a long way to go...

A day or two ago, I noticed that my left labia minora was swollen. It's not itchy, it doesn't burn; I have no symptoms other than the swollen area being rather sore to the touch. If I squeeze it, it hurts. When I did some investigating, it feels as if there's a small tube inside my labia minora, about 3/4 in. long. It changes a bit depending on if I'm aroused or not. It's in the part right next to the clitoris. I AM a virgin.

The inside of my vagina, or my labia becomes so itchy when I lie down to go to sleep/nap. When I am up during the day it doesnt bother me at all, but at night I feel like Im losing my mind. I have tried taking showers before I go to sleep and making sure the area is kept clean and let to breathe, but its just not helping. It itches so bad that I have to scratch and my labia is very red and irritated. I have no unusual discharge or odor changes, just the absolutely uncontrollable itch.

the next morning the swelling went down but still continues to be very itchy. Now the other side of my outside labia is swollen, red, and feels hard. There is also some discharge, which has become to look like the discharge from a yeast infection. I have read places that spermicides cause yeast infections, but have never had one this bad!! any idea whats going on???

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.

m concerned because not only is it STILL swollen, it is a LOT more swollen than it usually gets after sex. My labia is BRIGHT RED and VERY swollen, and when I touch it, it's very sore and a little dry. It's not itchy. I think it might be because we didn't use lube last night and we should've because the sex was very rough and I was dry.

My girlfriend and I had sex 2 days ago, immedietly after it her labia had swollen and was sore.. now 2 days later I notice the end of my penis is a little red, dry and a bit ichy. Are these related and what could they be ?
