groths on labia and vaginal opening Posted: 12-13-07 17:54pm
Hi there,
What an embarrassing topic to talk
about...but I need some advice, as I'm
going to seek the doc soon if this doesn't
go away. I was on a medication called
Cefuroxime not to long ago to treat an
infection in my lungs due to Bronchitis.
Well, there are side effects to this
medication for women such as Yeast
Infections/Vaginal Discharge. Well that
all happened, I treated with monistat
ointment and it was so painful it was
unbelievable. The infection is gone and
healed, but I was left with a few small
bumps around my labia area, and down lower
by my vaginal opening. Around the opening
seems to have alot more bumps and I'm
worried what it may be. It seems like
flat warts. It doesn't hurt, but
occasionally itches and bleeds. I've went
back to using Monistat to try and treat
it, this is now day 1 hoping for better
results as the days follow. But I have no
idea what this is, and I know neither me
or my bf have STD's as we've both been
tested. Any advice would be greatly
appreciated.

So very sorry no one replied to your
question....I just found it today. I do
hope you will go to a primary care
physican or your OBGYN, or a planned
parent hood clinic and have yourself
checked. What you are describing does not
sound like Monostat is gonna get rid of
it. It sounds as though you ahve genital
warts, which is a form of herpes. I read
where you said neither of you have an STD
and both been tested, but how long ago was
this? Just to be safe, I'd have this
looked at and treated by a professional.

Hi
This does sound like genital warts but
they are not a form of herpes, genital
warts are caused by the virus HPV. But
yeast infections can cause sores, so maybe
your infection was so severe that these
sores cannot be treated with the monistat.
As embarrassing as it is, i would see the
doctor so that you can be sure and get it
treated. Godd luck
