Hey
I have noticed that they are spots on my vagina, at first i thought it was just a shaving rash but i've tried smother shavers and i even stopped shaving for a while, but there still there and new ones keep popping up. And they still popped up when i didn't shave! :O I'm way too embarrassed to even get intimate with my boyfriend :(

Hi,
Welcome to ehealthforum,
It is difficult to comment on the ‘spots’ that you describe without examining you closely. If these are due to infective cause, you will require further treatment. If you are sexually active, you should also get your partner treated simultaneously to prevent re-infection and avoid having unprotected intercourse while both of you are on treatment course. Go ahead with getting the ‘spots’ examined by your doctor/gynecologist for further evaluation and assistance. Drink plenty of water. Avoid vaginal douching, use of harsh soap or perfumes in the area. Use loose cotton undergarments and avoid tight fitting clothes.
Take care.
