Ok so Im 13/f and I came home today hurting alot in my vaginal area. I went to the bathroom and looked at it to see what was wrong and this big rash type thing has grown around my vagina. I have never had sex and Im not sure if its a yeast infection? Well what is a yeast infection? It hurts to change sitting positions and its really irritating. I dont wanna talk to my mom because it could be awkward and I dont want her to look at it if I tell her because that would make me uncomfortable. Is there anything that can help me? I know you cant be 100% sure about this description but,: Its around my vaginal area pretty big and really red. It rises a bit above my skin and is irritating and uncomfortable.
Please help me! Will the rash go away on its own? I looked up pictures of people with the same problems and most people say its a rash. ive never had a rash before. Will it go away on its own? Help!!!
As a parent myself I will tell you what is most important to parents. Your well being and safety comes first. Mom knows that you will be embarrassed when you tell her. You shouldn't be. Remember you and mom are built exactly alike. She isn't going to see anything she hasn't seen before. My mother would tell me at these times, "remeber young man I changed your diapers". Yes she did but I had changed some since then and so have you. We understand this and we will not try to embarrass you if we don't have to.
As I said whatever is bothering you needs to be treated by a doctor. You are too young to make a doctors appointment or to be seen by a doctor by yourself. You must, by law, be accombanied by a parent. In this instance I believe you would be more comfortable with your mother accompaning you.
My advice is to tell mom you need to see a GYN. Tell her what the rash looks like and where it is. From your discription if mom needs to look at it she may be able to see what she needs without you taking your panties off. So to her asap. [ adviceman49's advice column | Ask adviceman49 A Question ]
