Question 1

woman has genital herpes outbreak 4 years ago on her mons pubis only. on meds. no outbreak for 2 years.

what are chances of me getting it if i have sex with her but never come in contact with that area? could she have other infected areas?

Accepted Answer

Unknown chance: If a person only has herpes lesions on the mons pubis, and nowhere else, there is a small but unknown (nobody can guess the chances) chance of catching herpes from other locations. A woman can have herpes viruses intermittently in her vulval-vaginal area without having outbreaks... because life is full of uncertainties. It's safest for her to be on medication, and for him to use condoms.

Question 2

i have a single bump on top of my mons pubis. not painful. could one ever get herpes on this area or could it most likely be boil/ingrowni shave alot.

Accepted Answer

It depends on how it: The bump could be a number of different possibilities. If it is painless, then it is not likely to be a boil or infection. I do not think it is herpes as that usually will cause a blister , red spots, itching or pain in the lesion.
Anything deeper requires close watch to see if it is increasing in size over 2-3 weeks. If it is over 1-2 centimeter or growing you need to have  it examined by  doctor.

Question 3

cut myself shaving on mons pubis, bled profusely, & resulted in a sore. do herpes sores bleed? no blister, sore was only "open" for a night, tweezed a few hairs out of it it, now it is dry and pink and looks almost like razor burn, just bigger.

Accepted Answer

Shaving injury: What you are describing sounds like a shaving injury. A herpes lesion usually does not bleed. If you felt yourself cutting the skin with the razor then this is the most likely explanation. If you are concerned see and Obgyn for an examination

Question 4

i am morbidly obese and have a large mons pubis area. i recently found new bumps on my genitals but have never been sexual (not even kiss/holding hands, etc.) is it possible to have gotten genital warts from being in constant contact w/toilet seats?

Accepted Answer

: No. You need to be seen to be diagnosed. Warts are irregular cauliflower-like growths . By your description and situation they are not venereal warts. They are something else

Question 5

i am experiencing  genital sores on my mons pubis. it is about the size of a small jellybean. it is slightly pink, and slightly yellow in the middle. ?

Accepted Answer

Needs to be seen: Lumps, bumps, blisters and other skin abnormalities on the genitals need to be evaluated. An examination will be needed to know the cause and treatment. Folliculitis is one possibility. Consider a Healthtap virtual visit.

Question 6

can a genital
wart appear on mons pubis area? ive noticed flat white circle even if you touch it you dont feel it can a wart be like that?

Accepted Answer

Yes: The virus causing warts can result in warts anywhere on the skin.
Wish you good health! - Have a diet rich in fresh vegetables, fruits, whole grains, milk and milk products, nuts, beans, legumes, lentils and small amounts of lean meats. Avoid saturated fats. Drink enough water daily, so that your urine is mostly colorless. Exercise at least 150 minutes/week and increase the intensity of exercise gradually. Do not use tobacco, alcohol, weed or street drugs in any form. 
Practice safe sex, if you have sex.

Question 7

is it normal to have a soft, non-painful lump on one side of mons pubis? its clearly a defined lump but i think it may be asymmetrical fat?

Accepted Answer

Lump in groin: A "soft, non-painful lump" on one side may be a lipoma,  a benign fatty tumor which has little clinical significance.  See your gyn who can determine the cause.

Question 8

can dry spot on mons pubis be dry skin?

Accepted Answer

Dry skin: you can try applying mupuricin ointment to that area after washing well.

Question 9

will losing weight get rid of a fat mons pubis?

Accepted Answer

Spot fat loss does : Not occur naturally. By losing weight in general  some may be mons pubis fat.  But, we don't get to choose what area of body fat is lost from. Eat healthy ; be physically active. Calories burned must &gt; those consumed.

Question 10

flesh colored,no raised nonitchy, flakes rash on mons pubis?

Accepted Answer

Warts??: These could be genital warts , common warts , muluscum contagiosum  as well as other possibilities.
I recommend you follow up with a doctor get checked and treated.
