I have these little white bumps on the outside and the inside of my vagina, and my vagina lips are turning red, it kind of looks like a rash or something. i don't know what to do and i'm really scared to even tell anyone about this because i fear this is a serious matter. i can't see my gyno because i'm only 15 and i can't have an std because i've never had any type of sex, so what's the problem? What should i do, and for the people reading this and giving me suggestions or advice, i really do appreciate it, but PLEASE HELP !!!

If you haven't had sexual contact yet, and there is no discomfort or discharge, then the redness is probably just how your vagina is reacting to being touched. That's what your body does in order to prepare itself for intercourse - it sends more blood to the area and it gets more red and swollen. The little white bumps on the inside of your lips are much like the small white bumps around your nipples or areola - it kind of resembles the bumps on chicken flesh or when you get goosebumps on your arm. If that's what you are wondering about, they are a natural part of your vulva.
If there is itching, discharge or soreness, and there has been some kind of sexual contact, you might want to get your Mom to take you into her OB/GYN, and you can see him on you own and ask that the exam and information be your own personal information, if that's a worry to you.
Hope this helped.

Don't worry that it is something serious, I doubt it is, but you should address your medical/physical concerns with a physician, not an advice board. We aren't doctors, we cannot examine you and couldn't possibly give you the correct information.
You have to get comfortable with your body and not be afraid to go see a doctor, that is like a cat hiding it's head behind a curtain and because it can't see you, it thinks it is invisible...not very smart.

Hi sweetie. Don't tell us your name, we try to keep things on the down low here;) Sounds like a possible yeast infection. Is it soar, or itchy? Is there a funny smell, or discharge? You should always see an OB, no matter what your age if you are concerned. If it is a yeast infection, eat less sugar, more yogurt. If that dosnt help, there are plenty of over-the-counter meds and topical ointments you can take, but please, see your OB to get properly diagnosed. Good luck!
