Type what you want to say here...i got itchy spot close to my virginia. At first i just thought it is just an itch. Later it started to itch so much that i couldn't sleep at night. So I checked it out myself to see what it is and see this..

It look like a clear bumps range on my inner labia . I don't know what it is..
I am 25 years old and I am sexually active past 2 week. Normally it is safe sex until a week before the itch appear .. it wasn't anything crazy.. it was more like just a few second to see how it like.
but yah, a week later it start to itch.. it'd been like this for 4 days.
I told my mom that i have an itch problem down there and she said it probably just normal itch problem from bad hygiene and give me hydrocortisone cream (on my 2nd day) after that it was like some of the time I don't feel anything.. Some of the time it itch so much that i don't know what to do. I did told her I want to get check up but she said it is not necessary.
I honestly don't know what to do.. At the same time I don't want to tell her about my sex life too. But i need to know what they are and anyway I can treat it before it is too late

It sounds like it could be Thrush if the bumps are really tiny. I only started get thrush after the first time I had unprotected sex, although apparently it's not necessarily passed by sex. it's a fungal yeast infection. It's really, really common so don't too scared, you can get cream and an oral pill from the chemist.
Normal Soaps can irritate it, try using a feminine hygiene soap down there. If you are sleeping with the same partner regularly you could be passing it back and forth between you. although men don't show any symptoms usually, they can pass it on and can get infections from it so ask him to take the oral pill too. Also if your man clips his pubic hair the stubble can irritate and make it come up.
I found that once I had it, it would flair up every now and then for no reason, particularly when I had my period and when I ate too much sugar or drank too much beer. also, weirdly, when I used condoms although that's no longer a problem as I'm in relationship and on the pill!
I hope that's what it is, good luck.

Hon...not to scare you but that honestly sounds like it could be herpes. Very common. If you dont know you can spread it to other parts of your body..like your face, eyes legs etc. just by reusing your towel. I hope that you made it to the Dr. There are treatments that will reduce the symptoms but either way you need to know. Its best if you have an outbreak that it be seen by the doc while active. In the meantime be very careful about washing your hands after you touch the area.
