A member asked:

Am sexually active & now i have bumps on vagina area but it's happened b4 after i shaved & gets itchy only when hair starts to grow. is it a concern?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Ingrown hairs: This sounds like ingrown hairs. It is nothing to be concerned about if it goes away. If you are concerned, you can have your GYN take a look at it.
