i've never had sex before, i haven't even made out that much, but i have an issue. i think i have genital herpes.
i've learned that genital herpes symptoms are pimply, reddish, puss-y marks in the genital area. once in a while i'll get a few gross, zitty white-head looking things near my vagina. they're itchy and sometimes pussy, and clear up usually within 2 weeks. it's been happening for about 3 years now. what IS this? please help!

I have read in a medical maginaze that the bumps you get from having herpes can come and go but you will always have the diease.you should have told your parents when it started if you have'nt already.be safe!!

If you're really scared, see a OBGYN [gynocologist] & get checked out, but it's probably nothing, so don't worry too much. [ christina's advice column | Ask christina A Question ]

You can get pimples ANYWHERE... Vagina included :)
Also, because its generally a hairy area you can get an ingrown hair - those itch, are red, and sometimes are even puss...y. XD Oh goodness. I almost wrote 'pussy' and considering the subject...yeah. Oh, and ingrown hair is more likely if you've been shaving down there.
I wouldn't worry about it very much unless it just really really bothers you. But if you have the guts to talk to a doctor about it, then by all means do. [ spookykiwi's advice column | Ask spookykiwi A Question ]
