(13/f)
I just took a bath, and I noticed that I had a couple pimples mixed in with my pubic hair..
I know that pimples are just hair folicles that grease and crap get stuffed into, so I might just be over-reacting. It's also been itching down there a lot more than usual, if that makes a difference.
I just got off my period, and I just started school last week, and we've been doing loads of stuff in gym that makes me really sweaty.
Does anyone know if I might have an infection or something, or knows that I'm just over-reacting?
Any advice is very appreciated! =9

It might be a skin condition known as "Prickly Heat" or miliaria (not to be confused with "malaria" which is the tropical disease spread by mosquitoes). Here is a link to the Wikipedia page on the subject:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Miliaria
Notice the line down near the bottom, where it says that frequent and thorough cleaning is usually a better alternative to medication. Try using an antibacterial soap and/or an exfoliant. Even if it's not prickly heat, it doesn't hurt to get a little cleaner!
