Q: Vaginal Acne
asked by: info_girl on May 3rd, 2008

Years ago, I went to my dermatologist and he gave me a topical medication to apply with the diagnosis of vaginal acne. It is not on the actual vagina, but rather near the creases by the top of my thigh. my dermatologist said it is due to moisture, becuase sweat builds there. I still get the ance and I have scarring due to acne cysts. Am I alone with this? Has anyone else ever heard of this or have this problem? It is embaressing and sometimes painful due to the location. Any advice would be appreciated. I would really like to know if I'm not alone in this...no one I know has this problem.

answer on the acne on vagina
..i've also encountered the same case..as i've study microbiology lots of worries arises..i've come up with different diagnostic processes..to know if i ever had a serious disease..but there is nothing to worry much..acne on vaginal areas specially on the mons pubis area are not that too serious cases..it is only due to sweat and more specifically due to moisture..our vagina have a certain pH level it should be maintained avoid using harsh soaps and detergents..specifically avoid using shower bath gel on that area..
