I can't go to the doctor because then my mom will know I am having sex!
Hey guys, So I'm going to get right down to it, I have been sleeping with this guy, and we had protective sex usually but one night we didn't have protection so he would just pull it out before he would 'cum' inside of me, but now Ive been noticing these kinda small.. completely white bumps that look like they're underneath the skin, the aren't anywhere near my actually vagina, they're more towards the lips, outer area. I thought maybe it could be an infection of some kind. I can't go to the doctor because I'm only 14 and my mom doesn't know I'm sexually active. By the way, I've had no symptoms, no discharge, smells, nothing. Anyone have an idea what this is?

It sounds like that it could be an std you need to get it checked out by a doctor

Adviceman49 said it all girl. There are worse things on this planet than your mom finding out that you are sexually active. If you come clean I bet it will relieve you both.

Hi, I'm old enough to be your grandfather and it is questions just like yours that I became an adviser on this sight. I tell it to you straight. You may not like my answer but you are getting the truth as I know it.
To start with at age 14 by law you have medical confidentiality. Meaning you can consult with a doctor without your mother being present in the exam room. Anything you discuss with your doctor stays between your doctor and you unless you give the doctor written consent to release that information.
The law is called HIPPA. Under this law any medical professional is restricted from releasing any medical information without your written consent. This includes EMTs and Paramedics. As a firefighter I am not allowed to tell a spouse or parent what hospital I have transported a loved one to. This is how strict HIPPA is. The Hospital cannot acknowledge a patient is in the ER without permission because of HIPPA.
So you can visit your doctor and ask that mom wait in the waiting room. If you do not wish to ask mom then slip a note to the nurse and the nurse will ask mom or have the doctor ask mom to wait outside. This is your right to medical privacy and is specifically geared to anyone over 13 so that they can be truthful with their doctor and receive proper medical care.
You can also ask for birth control medication and your doctor must prescribe for you unless there is medical reason not to do so. You don't need parental permission for birth control medication, in most states.
I'm not going to lecture you on being sexually active at your young age, obviously you have decided for yourself that you want to be sexually active. What I will lecture you on is proper precautions.
Condoms are very good at preventing the transmission of the HIV virus and other STDs. What they are not good at is the prevention of pregnancy. A condom, worn properly is only proven to be 85% effective at preventing pregnancy. To be properly protected you need to be on some form of birth control such as the pill which is proven to be 99% effective in preventing pregnancy.
You should never engage in sexual intercourse with anyone unless he uses a condom even if you are protected by birth control from pregnancy. The condom doubles the effectiveness of your birth control while protecting you from STDs.
As to what those bumps are I have no idea, you should see a doctor and I have informed you that you can do so without mom finding out you are sexually active.
