Swollen Vagina or Vulva: 8 Reasons This Can Happen

This can also happen due to something like staying in your sweaty leggings for too long after a workout or just wearing tight clothes in general, according to the Mayo Clinic. Yeast is like a jungle plant that thrives in damp, warm environments.

Other symptoms: As you may have experienced, yeast infections cause a variety of symptoms beyond. According to the Mayo Clinic, symptoms include:

What to know about treatment: Antifungal medications are the go-to for treating yeast infections, and they come in oral and topical forms, Rosser says. Here’s how to know if you’re good to treat your yeast infection on your own.

When to see a doctor: If you’ve never experienced symptoms like this before (or have never had them officially diagnosed as a yeast infection), see your doctor. Lots of health conditions can masquerade as yeast infections, so it’s a good idea to make sure you know what you’re dealing with. Even if you know for sure you have a yeast infection, if you’ve finished your course of treatment and are still experiencing symptoms, that’s another good sign to check in with your doctor. It could be a sign that you’re dealing with recurring yeast infections, which can involve more intense treatment. 

3. You have bacterial vaginosis.

Yet another cause of vaginitis—are you sensing a pattern? “This is caused by a shift in usual bacterial flora in the vagina,” Rosser says. Essentially, the bad bacteria in your vagina overwhelm the good bacteria, leading to inflammation and potential swelling.

Other symptoms: Sometimes bacterial vaginosis doesn’t cause any symptoms, the Mayo Clinic explains. But if it does, other symptoms include:

  • Thin, gray, white, or green vaginal discharge

  • Foul-smelling “fishy” vaginal odor

  • Vaginal itching

  • Burning during urination

What to know about treatment: Antibiotics (there are oral and topical options) can restore harmony to your vaginal flora, per the Mayo Clinic.

When to see a doctor: If you’re experiencing any of these symptoms without an obvious cause, check with your doctor. They can get you started on antibiotics if you do have bacterial vaginosis (and it’s causing your swollen vagina or vulva). 

4. You have trichomoniasis.

Here we have yet another cause of vaginitis! Despite being the most common curable sexually transmitted infection according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), a lot of people haven’t heard of trichomoniasis. It’s caused by a parasite called Trichomonas vaginalis, a type of single-celled organism (or protozoon). Sometimes trichomoniasis causes your vulva to swell.

Other symptoms: Like many other STIs, sometimes trichomoniasis completely flies under the radar and doesn’t cause any signs of something amiss, according to the Mayo Clinic. If you do exhibit symptoms of trichomoniasis, however, other symptoms might include:

  • Foul-smelling vaginal discharge that’s often described as “fishy”

  • White, gray, yellow, or green discharge

  • Genital redness

  • Burning and itching

  • Pain with urination or sexual intercourse

What to know about treatment: Treatment for trichomoniasis involves antibiotics, the Mayo Clinic explains, which tends to be one dose taken by mouth.

When to see a doctor: Experiencing these symptoms at all is a clear sign you need to see your doctor. As SELF previously reported, typical STI panels don’t test for trichomoniasis and you would normally have to request it separately. In this case, however, your ob-gyn would likely recommend it based on these symptoms. 

5. You started cycling recently.

“The vulva has a rich blood supply, and chafing and swelling may occur after cycling,” Rosser says, explaining that this phenomenon happens due to pressure on the vulva and is known as saddle sores. Also, if you hang out in your workout clothes for extended periods post-cycling, that might increase your risk of yeast infections, as we mentioned above. Double whammy.

Vaginal Swelling – Symptoms, Causes, Treatments

Swelling of the vagina can be generalized or may be present only in a limited location. Generalized swelling is known as edema. Edema results from fluid filling the tissues and may be associated with normal-looking, red or blotchy overlying skin. In inflammation, the skin is often swollen and red and may be warm to the touch.

Edema may be due to problems with the blood vessels or lymphatics (small, thin vessels that carry tissue fluid) and can also follow trauma. Inflammation can be due to allergy, irritation or infections. Allergy and irritation may be due to exposure to soaps, feminine hygiene products, perfumes, lubricants, douches, creams, or latex. Yeast infections and genital herpes are infections that can cause generalized vaginal swelling. An uncommon cause of generalized vaginal swelling is Fournier’s gangrene, a severe and life-threatening bacterial infection of the genital area that spreads from the urinary or gastrointestinal tracts.

Defined areas of swelling may be due to cysts or abscesses. Cysts of the vaginal wall can result from birth trauma or may form around Gartner’s ducts, ducts that form during fetal development and typically disappear after birth. Some vaginal tumors can also cause cysts. Bartholin’s glands, glands located on either side of the vaginal opening, can fill up with fluid, which can become infected and form abscesses.

The first step to treating vaginal swelling is identifying the cause. Inflammation may be treated by avoiding exposure to any irritants or allergens that can be identified. Antifungal drugs can be given to treat yeast infections, and antiviral drugs may be used to manage genital herpes symptoms. Cysts and abscesses may need to be drained or removed; antibiotics may be used for abscesses.

Vaginal swelling may be due to a treatable condition or may be a sign of a serious medical condition.
Seek immediate medical care (call 911) if you have vaginal swelling accompanied by severe pain, severe swelling, high fever (higher than 101 degrees Fahrenheit), or excessive vaginal bleeding.

If your vaginal swelling is persistent or causes you concern,
seek prompt medical care.

Bartholin’s cyst – NHS

A Bartholin’s cyst, also called a Bartholin’s duct cyst, is a small fluid-filled sac just inside the opening of a woman’s vagina.

Symptoms of a Bartholin’s cyst

You may feel a soft, painless lump. This does not usually cause any problems.

But if the cyst grows very large, it can become noticeable and uncomfortable. You may feel pain in the skin surrounding the vagina (vulva) when you walk, sit down or have sex.

The cyst can sometimes affect the outer pair of lips surrounding the vagina (labia majora). One side may look swollen or bigger than usual.

If the cyst becomes infected, it can cause a painful collection of pus (abscess) to develop in 1 of the Bartholin’s glands.

Signs of an abscess include the affected area becoming red, swollen, tender and hot. It can also cause a high temperature of 38C or above.

When to see a GP

Small Bartholin’s cysts are sometimes only found during a routine cervical screening test or an examination carried out for another reason.

Always see a GP if you develop a lump in the area around your vagina so they can confirm a diagnosis and rule out more serious conditions.

If they think the cyst or 1 of your Bartholin’s glands may be infected, they may use a swab to remove a sample of discharge for analysis to identify the bacteria responsible.

In some cases, your GP may recommend you have a biopsy. A small sample of cyst tissue will be removed and examined under a microscope to check for signs of a rare type of vulval cancer called Bartholin’s gland cancer.

What causes Bartholin’s cysts?

The Bartholin’s glands are a pair of pea-sized glands found just behind and either side of the lips that surround the entrance to the vagina.

The glands are not usually noticeable because they’re rarely larger than 1cm (0.4 inches) across.

The Bartholin’s glands secrete fluid that acts as a lubricant during sex. The fluid travels down tiny tubes called ducts into the vagina.

If the ducts become blocked, they can fill with fluid and expand to form a cyst.

It’s often not known why the ducts become blocked, but some cases are linked to sexually transmitted bacterial infections (STIs), such as gonorrhoea or chlamydia, or other bacterial infections, such as Escherichia coli (E. coli).

How Bartholin’s cysts are treated

If you do not have any noticeable symptoms, it’s unlikely you’ll need treatment.

If the cyst is painful, a GP may recommend some simple self care measures, such as soaking the cyst in warm water several times a day for 3 or 4 days and taking painkillers you can buy from a pharmacy or shop.

If these do not work, several treatments are available to treat the pain and any infection. If necessary, the cyst can be drained. Most of these treatments involve a minor surgical procedure.

A Bartholin’s cyst can sometimes return after treatment.

Who’s affected

A Bartholin’s cyst usually affects sexually active women aged between 20 and 30.

Bartholin’s cysts do not usually affect children because the Bartholin’s glands do not start functioning until puberty. 

The cysts are also uncommon after the menopause as this usually causes the Bartholin’s glands to shrink.

Preventing Bartholin’s cysts

It’s not clear exactly why Bartholin’s cysts develop, so it’s not usually possible to prevent them.

But as some are thought to be linked to STIs, practising safe sex (using a condom every time you have sex) can help reduce your chances of one developing.

Why You Might Have a Swollen Vagina—and What to Do About It

The words swollen vagina aren’t particularly pleasant to behold, we know, but every once in a while you might notice that it’s happening to you.

Don’t panic—a swollen vagina or vulva isn’t terribly uncommon, and there are several reasons it might be happening. To find out how to treat it (and when you should go see your doctor), we asked R. Mark Ellerkmann, M.D., a board-certified ob-gyn at Baltimore’s Mercy Medical Hospital, and Adeeti Gupta, M.D., a board-certified ob-gyn and founder of Walk in GYN Care in New York, for the facts.

Why is my vagina or my vulva swollen?

A swollen vagina could be caused by a bunch of different things. It’s not always a one-size-fits-all problem. But rest easy—most causes are pretty benign. According to Dr. Ellerkmann and Dr. Gupta, irritation, caused by everything from pantyliners, to underwear that doesn’t breathe well, to toilet paper, is often the culprit.

But your vagina can also swell after trauma or injury, an infection, even vigorous sex (although the sex would have to be quite vigorous, Dr. Gupta notes), so getting to the bottom of what’s causing the swelling is key.

So what should I do about it?

While it’s probably nothing to worry about (even many vaginal infections are easily treatable with antibiotics), better to be safe than sorry when it comes to any intimate issues. “I suggest seeing your ob-gyn ASAP so that an underlying abscess or a serious infection doesn’t get missed,” Dr. Gupta says. Dr. Ellerkmann agrees: “Anything that is not normal with your vagina—appearance, smell, pain, discharge—should require a consultation with a physician to figure out what’s going on,” he says.

Even if it is just a case of irritation (or the result of a particularly passionate night with your partner), your doc can recommend exactly how to treat your swollen vagina. While it’s tempting to ice your vagina like you would a swollen ankle, the best treatment really depends on the cause.

“Until you can get to your doctor, avoid any rubbing and playing around down there”—yes, that means sex—”so as to not aggravate it,” Dr. Gupta says. You should also switch into cotton panties to help the area breathe. Above all, don’t panic, says Dr. Ellerkmann. While it’s important to see a doctor to rule out any major issues, you—and your vagina—are probably fine.

8 Reasons Your Vagina Is Swollen After Sex And How To Treat It

There’s nothing like a toe-curling romp to leave you feeling oooh-oooooh so good. That is until you detangle your bodies, roll over to the other side of the bed to cool down, and realize your vagina is swollen AF.

Is she supposed to be that red? That plump? That…irritated?

As you’ve probably guessed, the answer is heck no. But (keyword here!) there’s no reason to spiral into a tizzy over a swollen vagina because, although you and your friends might not talk about it on the reg, it’s actually pretty common and usually easily manageable. (Phew.)

Curious about what’s going on with your vag? One gyno answers all:

So what does a swollen vagina after mean? Turns out, there are a handful of reasons for that post-coital puffiness—here, the possible culprits, plus how to treat:

1. Rough sex

Here’s the thing: Every time you get turned on, your vulva and vagina begin to swell because of all the amped up blood flow down there, according to the Cleveland Clinic.

But if you notice other symptoms, such as thin cuts around the vaginal opening—that might mean the swelling et. al. is actually due to a rougher-than-usual sex sesh. If this is the case, you might also experience a bit of bleeding and find that the area is a little black and blue, explains Alyssa Dweck, MD, ob-gyn in Westchester, New York, and coauthor of V Is for Vagina.

There’s no reason to call it quits if rough sex is your thing, but you don’t want to leave an unhappy vagina, well, unhappy.

To ease the swollen sitch, take an OTC pain reliever, or soak your genital area in a sitz bath (a shallow bath that fits over the toilet made for treating down-there probs). Or sit in a regular bath filled with warm water for about 15 to 20 minutes, Dr. Dweck recommends.

2. Allergic reaction

Upon further examination, you notice that your red, swollen vagina has a…rash.

It’s very possible your vagina is having an allergic reaction or has a sensitivity to a product, such as a latex condom, or even sperm, Dr. Dweck says. (A semen allergy, a.k.a. seminal plasma hypersensitivity, is a rare allergic reaction to the proteins found in semen that can cause redness, swelling, pain, itching, and burning in the genital area, according to the International Society for Sexual Medicine.)

More often than not, however, after-sex swelling is the result of your body’s sensitivity or allergy to common irritants, such as products with spermicide (nonoxynol 9), fragrances, latex, and vaginal medications.

To figure out what’s going on, Dr. Dweck recommends first eliminating any of these items that you’ve been using and observe how your body responds.

3. Yeast infection

Two words nearly every women dreads hearing. But sorry, girl, but if you’re swollen down under, yeast might be to blame.

First, a quick refresher: Caused by an overgrowth of the fungus candida (which is naturally found in your vagina, btw), a vaginal yeast infection is best known for its common symptom of, to put it lightly, extreme itchiness in and around the vagina, according to the Office of Women’s Health.

Other symptoms include:

  • Pain when urinating or during sex
  • Soreness and/or burning
  • Redness and swelling that, per Dr. Dweck, can make your vagina look “beefy, inflamed, and blistered.” (Eek.)
  • A minor rash
  • Thick, white discharge with no foul odor

      If you suspect this is your first time with a yeast infection, it’s best to consult your doc, who can screen you for other problems to be sure. If it’s truly a yeast infection, they can prescribe strong, fast-acting anti-fungal meds.

      But if you’ve been here before and are positive your swelling (and other circumstances) are because yet another yeast infection, skip the office visit and try an OTC anti-fungal treatment, like Monistat.

      4. Bacterial vaginosis

      This condition happens when there is too much of a certain bacteria in your vagina, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).

      While similar in symptoms to yeast infections (pain, itching, burning, and, yup, inflammation and swelling), bacterial vaginosis (BV) typically causes a discharge that is gray, thin, and fishy-smelling, says Dr. Dweck. That being said, BV can also be asymptomatic, meaning it doesn’t produce any symptoms (aside from the swelling you already noticed).

      BV can technically go away without any treatment, per the CDC. But if you’re experiencing any of the above symptoms, get checked by a doc, who can prescribe antibiotics to treat the issue.

      5. Vaginal dryness or atrophy

      Having sex when you’re dealing with a Sahara situation down there (no shame!) can leave your vagina red and painfully swollen.

      This content is imported from {embed-name}. You may be able to find the same content in another format, or you may be able to find more information, at their web site.

      The issue could be the result of not enough foreplay, but low estrogen levels due to menopause, perimenopause, lactation, or birth control can also cause vaginal dryness and atrophy [thinning, drying, inflammation of the vaginal wall], says Dr. Dweck.

      If it’s the latter, your vag may also feel somewhat thin, abraded, and inelastic, she adds.

      To fix, start by bringing lube into the bedroom, simply to increase moisture and decrease swelling-causing friction. If that doesn’t help, consider visiting your doctor—if low estrogen is truly to blame, they may recommend treatment, such as taking additional estrogen.

      6. Sexually transmitted infections (STIs)

      Certain STIs that, per Dr. Dweck, cause “tissue inflammation”—such as chlamydia and trichomoniasis—can cause vaginal swelling.

      While chlamydia frequently doesn’t cause symptoms, trichomoniasis is a common offender of a reddened, swollen vulva that can also lead to bleeding after sex, irritation, odor, and, per the American College of Obstetrics and Gynecology (ACOG), a yellow-gray or green discharge that may also smell fishy.

      All you need to treat, per ACOG, is a single dose of an oral antibiotic, so if anything of these symptoms show up with the swelling after sex, see your gyno, stat.

      And disclaimer? Regular STI screenings are always a good idea.

      7. Cellulitis

      Cellulitis is a bacterial infection of the skin and underlying tissues that may cause the skin to become swollen, red, and tender, according to U.S. National Library of Medicine (NLM). Cellulitis can happen when, say, normal bacteria that lives on your skin enters through a cut or break in your derm layer, thereby causing a skin infection.

      So while sex doesn’t cause this swelling, getting frisky can certainly aggravate it and even bring it to your attention, especially if swelling continues to increase (meaning the infection is spreading).

      Other tell-tale signs of cellulitis? Fever, nausea, vomiting, and a warm-to-touch, tight, glossy, or stretched appearance of skin. Relief includes antibiotics (so call your doc!) and using a warm compress on the area, Dr. Dweck explains.

      8. Pregnancy

      Hopefully this isn’t the cause of your after-sex vaginal swelling unless you’re trying for a baby. But it can be a common one: Thanks to all the hormonal changes brought on when you’re expecting, your body starts to swell in a variety of different places—your vagina included.

      During pregnancy, there’s also increased blood flow and pressure from the uterus, which can amp up this swelling, according to the Office of Women’s Health.

      Once you ensure that the inflammation isn’t caused by, say, an infection, you can treat allover puffiness by avoiding prolonged standing and wearing compression socks or support stockings.

      Yep, compression socks can help you have a less swollen vagina after sex. Who knew?!

      Swollen Vagina During Pregnancy: Causes, Symptoms & Treatment

      Last Updated on

      As your pregnancy progresses, you simply cannot wait for your little bundle of joy to come into the world. However, certain health issues can ruin your happiness. Morning sickness, nausea, and back pain are common during pregnancy, and so is vaginal swelling. Vaginal swelling is a condition that can make you extremely uncomfortable. In this article, we talk about vaginal swelling during pregnancy, its causes, symptoms, and different ways of treating it.

      What Is Vaginal Swelling?

      The swelling that occurs in the vaginal area including the vulva and vaginal lips (labia) is termed as vaginal swelling. It also affects pregnant women. Let’s look at some of its causes.

      Causes of a Swollen Vagina During Pregnancy

      Here are some reasons why vaginal swelling can occur during pregnancy:

      1. Increased Blood Flow

      During pregnancy, blood flow around the pelvic region increases to support the growing fetus. The increase in blood flow may cause swelling of the vagina.

      2. Poor Hygiene

      Vaginal swelling could also be a result of improper hygiene. If you’re negligent about your vagina, it may become the breeding ground for microbes and result in swelling and inflammation.

      3. Hormonal Changes

      Your body undergoes various changes during pregnancy, and changing hormones are one of them. These hormones affect the flora of the vagina and lead to various kinds of bacterial and viral growth, and in turn, swelling.

      4. Use of Certain Products

      Use of certain products may also result in vaginal swelling. These products may trigger an allergic reaction in your vaginal region, leading to inflammation and redness.

      5. Sexual Intercourse

      Sometimes, a lack of lubrication during sexual intercourse or prolonged sexual intercourse can cause vaginal swelling.

      6. Cysts

      Cysts in the vaginal region can cause vaginal swelling, too. Sometimes, these cysts may also be cancerous.

      7. Inflammation in the Vaginal Region

      Sometimes, the inflammation of the vaginal arteries and ducts can cause oedema. Oedema may lead to accumulation of fluid causing swelling in the vagina. 

      8. Unhealthy Foods

      This may come as a surprise but it is true. Your eating habits can affect the health of your vagina. If you eat too much junk food or make unhealthy food choices, it can lead to vaginal infections and swelling.

      9. Bacterial Vaginosis

      Vaginal swelling can also occur due to bacterial vaginosis (BV). If this is the case, it should resolve on its own. Your doctor may recommend antibiotics to speed up the healing process.

      10. Yeast Infection

      When there is an overgrowth of the candida fungal bacteria in the vaginal area, it can lead to vaginal swelling. Symptoms include burning, redness, pain during sex and urination, irritated skin and thick vaginal discharge.

      Signs and Symptoms

      The signs of vaginal swelling during pregnancy are:

      • Smelly vaginal discharge
      • Inflammation around the vaginal region
      • A burning sensation while urinating
      • Bleeding sores or blisters
      • Irritation or pain around the vagina
      • Itching in the inflamed area

      Can Vaginal Swelling Affect the Baby?

      Vaginal swelling doesn’t harm the baby in the womb. However, if you have vaginal swelling due to a GBS infection that is Group B strep, then it may spread to your baby, too. In case you are tested positive for GBS, your doctor will administer a course of antibiotics to cure your infection. But if your baby catches this infection, then your baby may experience extreme lethargy and difficulty in feeding after birth.

      How to Treat Vaginal Swelling When You’re Pregnant

      Here are some effective ways to treat vaginal or labial swelling during pregnancy:

      1. Refrain from Scratching

      You may feel all itchy and uncomfortable but refrain from scratching any blisters or oozy lesions in your vaginal region. Scratching can spread the infection and cause more complications.

      2. Maintain Hygiene

      It’s important to maintain hygiene to avoid vaginal infections from aggravating. However, don’t scrub your vagina, it has its own self-cleaning mechanism in place!

      3. Don’t Self-Medicate

      We suggest that you seek medical help as soon as you notice the symptoms of vaginal swelling. Don’t self-medicate; it may cause complications to your pregnancy. After a thorough physical examination, your doctor may prescribe antibiotics.

      Effective Home Remedies for Vaginal Swelling

      You can also try home remedies to cure itchy and swollen vaginal lips during pregnancy:

      1.

      Drink Water

      Drinking water helps to reduce the burning sensation. That’s because the more you visit the loo, the more bacteria get expelled from your body.

      2. Cold Packs

      You can use cold packs to ease vaginal swelling and inflammation. Alternatively, you can take a bath with cold water.

      3. Increase Your Intake of Probiotics

      Increasing your probiotic intake can help in balancing the overgrowth of bad bacteria and yeast in your body. You can add buttermilk and yoghurt to your diet.

      4. Soak in Apple Cider Vinegar

      The antibacterial properties of apple cider vinegar can provide relief from vaginal swelling. You can put some ACV in a bathtub and soak yourself in it for 10 to 15 minutes.

      When Should I Go to the Doctor?

      You should go to the doctor if:

      • The swelling and itching don’t go away after a few days.
      • You experience abnormal discharge.
      • Your vulva develops ulcers or small bumps.

      How Can You Prevent Vaginal Swelling?

      Here are some tips to prevent vaginal swelling during pregnancy:

        • Maintain vaginal hygiene at all times. Pregnancy makes you more prone to infections, thus taking good care during this time can ward off infections.
        • Don’t use scented soaps to clean your private parts as they can cause an allergic reaction.
        • Always wear comfortable and cotton underwater. Don’t use underwear that doesn’t allow your skin to breathe.
        • Have a nutritious and healthy diet. Don’t eat unhealthy foods that trigger vaginal swelling and itching.
        • In case your vagina is dry and itchy, you should keep it moisturised. Seek medical help for appropriate ointments/lotions.

      Vaginal swelling can be very painful and uncomfortable during pregnancy. However, with proper care and timely medical intervention, your condition can not only be managed but also avoided.

      Vulvitis (Vulvar Itching): Causes, Treatment & Prevention

      Overview

      What is vulvitis?

      Vulvitis is not a disease, but refers to the inflammation of the soft folds of skin on the outside of the female genitalia, the vulva. The irritation can be caused by infection, allergic reaction, or injury. The skin of the vulva is especially susceptible to irritation due to its moistness and warmth.

      Who is affected by vulvitis?

      Any woman of any age can be affected by vulvitis. Girls who have not yet reached puberty or post-menopausal women may be at higher risk of vulvitis. Their lower estrogen levels may make them more susceptible to the condition due to thinner, dryer vulvar tissues.

      Symptoms and Causes

      What causes vulvitis?

      Vulvitis can be caused by many factors or irritants, including:

      • The use of colored or perfumed toilet paper
      • An allergic reaction to bubble bath or soap used to clean the genital area
      • Use of vaginal sprays or douches
      • Irritation by a chlorinated swimming pool or hot tub water
      • Allergic reaction to spermicide
      • Allergic reaction to sanitary napkins
      • Wearing synthetic underwear or nylon pantyhose without a breathable cotton crotch
      • Wearing a wet bathing suit for extended periods of time
      • Bike or horseback riding
      • Fungal or bacterial infections including scabies or pubic lice
      • Herpes
      • Skin conditions such as eczema or dermatitis

      What are the symptoms of vulvitis?

      The symptoms of vulvitis can include:

      • Extreme and constant itching
      • A burning sensation in the vulvar area
      • Vaginal discharge
      • Small cracks on the skin of the vulva
      • Redness and swelling on the vulva and labia (lips of the vagina)
      • Blisters on the vulva
      • Scaly, thick, whitish patches on the vulva

      The symptoms of vulvitis can also suggest other disorders or diseases of the genitals. If you are experiencing any of these symptoms, you should consult your healthcare provider.

      Diagnosis and Tests

      How is vulvitis diagnosed?

      Your doctor will begin with a medical history and full pelvic exam, looking for redness, blisters, or lesions that may indicate vulvitis. He or she may also check for vaginal discharge, which can be tested for infections.

      The doctor may also check for sexually transmitted infections (STIs) or collect a urine sample for analysis in order to rule out more serious causes of genital irritation.

      Management and Treatment

      How is vulvitis treated?

      The first treatment is to immediately stop the use of any products that may be causing the irritation and to wear loose-fitting, breathable white cotton undergarments. Over-the-counter anti-itch products should be avoided, as they can make the condition worse, or last longer.

      Your doctor may also prescribe the use of an over-the-counter cortisone ointment on the affected area several times a day. This can help reduce the irritation and itching.

      Sitz baths and the use of a topical estrogen cream may also be prescribed to deal with the itching and other symptoms of vulvitis.

      If these treatments do not reduce the irritation, further tests may be prescribed to rule out more serious underlying conditions such as vulvar cancer. Luckily, vulvar cancer is rare.

      Prevention

      Can vulvitis be prevented?

      Women can take several measures to prevent vulvitis. These include using gentle, unscented cleaning products on the genital area, and thoroughly drying the genitals after bathing. In fact, using wateronly is often sufficient to clean the genital area. It is also advisable to avoid the use of douches and other fragranced feminine products. Wearing breathable, loose fitting cotton undergarments can also help prevent vulvitis, as can changing into dry clothing soon after swimming and exercising.

      Outlook / Prognosis

      What is the prognosis for vulvitis?

      Vulvitis that is not a symptom of an underlying disease is usually easily treated following diagnosis with the simple measures described in the previous sections. Itching and other symptoms can usually be relieved within weeks of diagnosis.

(No, you can not pull out your fucking fingers, I like everything 😤) Let me massage you there, quickly the process will go! ” With tears in my eyes I tell her NOOOO !!! Well, she didn’t)) asked right there, seeing that I was inadequate, whether I had gone to the anesthesiologist to obtain permission for EA. Well, of course …. isn’t it clear to me ?!

      90,000 What causes vaginal pain? Popular articles

      Vaginal pain bothers many women, they arise for various reasons and in some cases go away on their own.However, pain may indicate a serious illness that requires treatment, so you should not ignore the alarming symptoms.

      As a rule, the diagnosis of the cause of vaginal pain is not difficult for an experienced doctor, but there is such a thing as vulvodynia: the presence of pain in the labia and vagina, the cause of which cannot be established. It is believed that if, after a complete examination, the cause of such pain is not found, its origin is associated with a neurogenic factor, as well as immune and genetic factors.

      Pain is a defense reaction of the body in response to any stimuli.

      Vaginal pain can be as follows:

      • associated or not associated with physical activity, sexual intercourse.
      • Intensity: Low to high.
      • character: pulling, stabbing, cutting, dull, sharp.
      • duration: acute, chronic.
      • constancy: constant, periodic, recurrent.
      • accompanying symptoms: vaginal discharge, itching, burning.

      What are the possible causes of vaginal pain?

      • inflammatory diseases of the genital organs, in particular, caused by sexually transmitted infections. Colpitis (inflammation of the vaginal mucosa) is manifested by pain in the vagina, burning and itching during and after intercourse, yellowish discharge with an unpleasant odor. Colpitis can be caused by both specific (gonococci, Trichomonas, chlamydia) and non-specific flora (streptococci, staphylococci, Escherichia coli).Colpitis can turn into cervicitis (inflammation of the cervical mucosa), metritis and endometritis (inflammation of the uterus), adnexitis (inflammation of the uterine appendages).
      • candidiasis of the vagina (thrush). It is provoked by conditions such as decreased immunity, taking antibiotics, wearing tight and tight underwear, poor hygiene, endocrine diseases (diabetes mellitus), unhealthy diet (eating fatty, spicy, smoked foods).
      • inflammation of the Bartholin gland. The Bartholin glands, located in the vestibule of the vagina, produce mucus to moisturize the vulva and vaginal opening.Inflammation of the glands is often one-sided, characterized by stitching pains when moving, during intercourse.
      • endometriosis. This condition causes soreness in the vagina, especially during sexual intercourse. After contact, blood may be released from the vagina and pulling pain in the lower abdomen.
      • Kraurosis of the vulva: in elderly women, this condition often occurs, characterized by thinning of the skin of the external genital organs. Due to the lack of hormones, the skin becomes easily vulnerable, injured even when it comes into contact with underwear, itching.
      • trauma, foreign bodies in the vagina.
      • dryness of the mucous membrane during menopause. Due to the dysfunction of the ovaries and a lack of estrogen, dryness of the vaginal mucosa occurs, which becomes the cause of soreness, which increases with intercourse.
      • medical manipulations (therapeutic and diagnostic). Pain syndrome often occurs after hysteroscopy, the installation of an intrauterine device.
      • various abnormalities of the vagina.
      • benign neoplasms (fibromas, fibroids) of the vagina more often cause pain during examination and during intercourse, malignant neoplasms are manifested by pain, but more often in the later stages.
      • Acute surgical pathology: ovarian apoplexy. This is a hemorrhage in the ovary due to rupture of the cyst or vessels of the follicle. Apoplexy is accompanied by hemorrhage into the abdominal cavity. This condition is provoked by trauma, vaginal douching, aggressive sex.The general condition of the woman worsens, worries about weakness, severe abdominal pain, nausea and vomiting are possible. Apoplexy requires urgent surgical treatment.
      • prolapse of the body of the uterus (complete, incomplete), prolapse of the walls of the vagina. More common in women over 45. Simultaneously with pulling pains, urinary and fecal incontinence is noted.
      • cicatricial changes after medical interventions: tears and incisions of the perineum during childbirth. They are characterized by recurrent dull or pulling pains in the vagina that occur periodically.
      • proctitis, paraproctitis, inflammation of internal hemorrhoids, cystitis, urethritis.

      In these conditions, pain can radiate into the vagina.

      If you experience pain in the vagina, you should immediately consult a gynecologist for examination.

      90,000 Pain when urinating: what is the reason?

      Soreness when urinating is a serious symptom that always indicates the presence of any pathology.In most cases, they require medical attention. Therefore, a visit to a specialist should be immediate.

      All the reasons why the pelvic organs can hurt when urinating can be divided into related and unrelated to the health of the genitourinary system. In addition, there are also specific conditions that are characteristic of different sexes.

      Causes of pain associated with the genitourinary organs

      • Kidney and / or bladder stones. Soreness in such cases is often due to the movement of stones and trauma to the inner walls of the urinary tract.Stones can block these pathways, and then pain occurs due to the increase in pressure from urine accumulating above the obstruction. Additional symptoms are an increase in body temperature, cloudy urine, paroxysmal pain in the lower abdomen, side and back, which spread to the perineum.
      • Inflammation of the urethra. Urethritis is characterized by sharp, cutting pains when urinating. This pathology requires an immediate start of treatment, since it is almost always infectious in nature and has a high chance of spreading the inflammatory process higher – in the bladder and kidneys.
      • Cystitis. Cystitis in the vast majority of cases is the result of untreated urethritis. The symptoms of these pathologies are similar, but with cystitis, pain in the lower abdomen is also observed, combined with frequent and unproductive urge to urinate.
      • Venereal diseases. This includes a wide range of sexually transmitted infections. The most common pathogens in this case are gonococcus, Trichomonas, ureaplasma, chlamydia, mycoplasma and gardnerella.All such diseases require a specific course of treatment with the participation of not only a urologist or gynecologist, but also a specialist in venereology. Such disorders are also characterized by pathological sensations in the genital tract (itching, burning) and discharge of various consistencies.

      Causes of pain associated with other organs

      • Tumor pathologies. This includes all kinds of benign (polyps, fibromas) and malignant (cancerous or non-cancerous) neoplasms.Strictly speaking, they can also affect the organs of the urinary system. But their effect on pain during urination is nonspecific, not related to the exact location of the tumor. The main cause of pain is mechanical compression by the neoplasm of the urine outflow tract.
      • Gout. This pathology is associated with impaired renal function and the release of large amounts of uric acid into the bloodstream. The latter is deposited in the form of crystals in various tissues and organs, mainly in the joints. And by itself, kidney damage with gout is manifested by pain and burning sensation when urinating.
      • Consequences of infectious diseases of other organs. Complications in the form of infection of the genitourinary system can give sinusitis, tonsillitis, viral diseases of the respiratory organs, bacterial pathologies of the intestines, caries, stomatitis, etc.

      Causes of pain in men

      • Inflammation of the prostate gland. Prostatitis is one of the most common pathologies of the genitourinary system in men. Factors contributing to its appearance are urinary tract infections, a sedentary lifestyle, chronic stress.The pain in this case is combined with frequent and unproductive urge to urinate, pain in the groin and perineum.
      • Tumors of the prostate. Both benign adenoma and malignant prostate carcinoma are often accompanied by excruciating pain when emptying the bladder.
      • Pathological narrowness of the foreskin. Such a violation is called phimosis, and it is associated with the inability to expose the glans of the penis. Subject to the rules of hygiene, the pain has a purely mechanical cause – urine accumulates in the preputial cavity, inflates it and comes out in drops or in a thin stream.
      • Balanoposthitis. This is an inflammatory lesion of the glans penis and foreskin. Almost always, this pathology occurs as a complication of phimosis with insufficient hygiene. A small amount of lubricant is constantly secreted from the urethra. And if it is not eliminated, then it accumulates under the foreskin and serves as a good breeding ground for bacteria. Pain during urination and erection is associated with active inflammation.
      • Vesiculitis (inflammation of the seminal vesicles), orchitis (inflammation of the testicle), epididymitis (inflammation of the epididymis) – with these pathologies, discomfort when emptying the bladder occurs less often and is usually not the leading symptom.
      • If suspicious symptoms appear, a man needs to consult a urologist and andrologist.

      Causes of pain in women

      • Inflammation of the vagina (vaginitis) or cervix (cervicitis). In addition to pain in the process of excreting urine, these diseases are also characterized by the appearance of pathological discharge from the genital tract, itching and burning in them.
      • Candidiasis. This is a lesion of the vaginal mucosa that occurs with the active growth of yeast fungi of the genus Candida.Pain and cramps in this pathology are accompanied by cheesy discharge with a characteristic odor, as well as itching in the vagina and on the external genitals.

      To diagnose and treat these diseases, a woman should consult a gynecologist.

      I would especially like to emphasize that most often the causes of pain during urination are caused by pathologies of an inflammatory and infectious nature. This means that careful and competent hygiene plays a leading role in the prevention of such violations.

      And just a simple adherence to it will significantly reduce the risk of such diseases.

      The most detailed and reliable information about the correct hygiene of the genitals you can get at the consultation of a doctor in the “CM-Clinic”. To make an appointment, call: +7 (4912) 77-67-51.

      Good day, the labia are swollen, what can it be?

      Hello!

      The reasons provoking puffiness of the labia can be quite extensive.And yet, the diagnosis is made on the basis of a complex of gynecological examinations and examinations, bacterioscopy.

      1. One of the most common diseases provoking a tumor of the labia is bartholinitis. This inflammatory process, caused by an infection that has entered the woman’s body, proceeds in the Bartholin gland and is burdened with purulent foci.

      2. The second reason provoking swelling of the labia is vulvovaginitis (an inflammatory process in the tissues of the labia).The reason for its appearance may be: irritation of the labia by mechanical contact or due to vaginal discharge, which has undergone a composite correction due to insufficient or lack of hygiene of this intimate area.

      3. Candidiasis (thrush), which gives a similar symptomatology. A distinctive feature of this disease are: curdled vaginal discharge, an unpleasant sour smell, itching, painful symptoms inside the vagina directly during intercourse.

      4. Also pain in the intimate area, and directly in the labia, their swelling, the cause of which is difficult to establish, may be the result of progressive vulvodynia, which is provoked by prolonged use of antibiotics or in the case of chronic candidiasis.

      5. If the labia are swollen, but besides this, there is painful urination and unpleasant fetid discharge of a greenish-yellow tint, the skin itches, such symptoms may indicate the presence of one of such diseases as vulvitis (inflammation of the external genital organs) or vaginitis (inflammation of the vagina ).

      6. The cause of puffiness can also be an allergic reaction of the sensitive skin of intimate areas to friction of underwear or the material of the product.

      Best regards,

      Contents

      Acute or chronic inflammatory process localized in the external genital area in women is called vulvitis.In the overwhelming majority of cases, this disease is caused by various representatives of the opportunistic flora. Much less often, inflammation is provoked by STD pathogens. Such a pathology can occur at absolutely any age, including in little girls. The clinical picture with vulvitis is represented by burning and itching, swelling of the external genital organs and their redness, pathological discharge, and so on. The prognosis for this condition will be determined by the timeliness of the treatment started.The advanced forms of vulvitis can lead to an upward spread of infection with subsequent damage to other organs of the reproductive system, which creates a danger in terms of the occurrence of infertility.

      Vulvitis is a widespread disease. In this case, inflammation captures the clitoris, labia minora and majora, as well as the vestibule of the vagina. As we have already said, such a pathological process can develop at any age. There is no exact information on the frequency of its occurrence, since many women do not seek medical help and self-medicate.This approach is completely wrong, since in the absence of the necessary therapy, vulvitis can cause a number of serious gynecological problems.

      Classification and causes of inflammation with vulvitis

      First of all, it should be said that vulvitis is divided into primary and secondary forms. In the primary form, it is the external genital organs that are immediately affected. It usually occurs in girls as well as in postmenopausal women.In childhood, the mucous membrane of the external genital organs is very thin, due to which it can be easily injured with subsequent penetration of infection. Other predisposing factors for the onset of inflammation include the alkaline environment of the secreted secretion and the failure of local immunity.

      As for women after menopause, atrophic changes in the mucous membrane become the main cause of inflammation in them. There is a decrease in vaginal discharge, which contributes to the “drying” of the mucous layer, its thinning and easier injury.

      The secondary form of vulvitis is characterized by the initial formation of some other infectious focus, from which the pathogen spreads to the external genital area. An example is primary inflammation of the vagina or uterus. This form is much more common. She is found among those women who do not fall into the above categories.

      First of all, such causes of inflammation as non-observance of the rules of personal hygiene, especially during menstrual bleeding, mechanical injuries of the mucous membrane of the external genital organs, including during sexual intercourse, as well as irritation of the mucous layer by pathological vaginal discharge, are involved in the development of vulvitis. , chemicals and so on.Long-term use of antibacterial drugs, allergic reactions, endocrine and metabolic disorders, excessive sweating and much more can provoke the onset of the inflammatory process.

      As we have already said, in the overwhelming majority of cases, various representatives of the opportunistic flora play a role in the development of such inflammation. Here we are talking not only about bacteria, but also about yeast-like fungi belonging to the genus Candida. Other pathogens can also lead to damage to the external genital organs, but much less frequently.

      The main symptoms of vulvitis: itching, burning, swelling and more

      Regardless of what causes of inflammation occurred, the clinical picture will include quite specific signs. It is worth noting that vulvitis is divided into acute and chronic variants.

      In the acute course of the inflammatory reaction, first of all, there are complaints of itching, burning and soreness in the external genital area. On examination, a fairly pronounced edema is found.The mucous membrane is hyperemic, often erosions and ulcers appear on its surface. The patient indicates the presence of pathological discharge that is serous-purulent or of some other nature. In some cases, there may be an increase in body temperature to subfebrile values. Another characteristic sign is the swelling and tenderness of the inguinal lymph nodes.

      In the chronic variant, exactly the same symptoms are present: itching, swelling, burning, redness, and so on.However, they are much less pronounced. In the chronic course of vulvitis, quite frequent exacerbations are observed.

      Diagnosis and treatment of inflammation

      Diagnosis of vulvitis, as a rule, does not cause any difficulties. It is possible to detect inflammatory signs already with a gynecological examination. Methods such as colposcopy and ultrasound will help to exclude damage to other gynecological organs. A smear is taken without fail, followed by its direction for microscopic and bacteriological examination.

      With such inflammation, antibacterial or antifungal agents, antihistamines can be used. Additionally, the treatment of the external genital organs with antiseptic solutions is shown. A good effect is observed when carrying out various physiotherapeutic procedures. In women with signs of mucosal atrophy, local hormonal agents containing estrogens are widely used.

      Prevention of the development of vulvitis

      To prevent the occurrence of vulvitis, it is recommended to carefully monitor personal hygiene, wear comfortable underwear, avoid casual sexual intercourse, promptly treat emerging inflammatory pathologies from other parts of the reproductive system, and increase the level of immune defense.

      Genital prolapse, prolapse – Obstetrics and Gynecology – Departments

      Genital prolapse is a pathological process in which there is a prolapse or prolapse of the internal female genital organs (vagina, uterus, appendages). This disease usually develops gradually.Often, a woman does not pay attention to the first signs of weakening of ligaments and muscles, or hesitates to contact a gynecologist with her suspicions. Due to the prolapse of the genitals, secondary diseases can occur, blood circulation in all organs that occupy the pelvic space is impaired. A woman cannot lead a normal sexual and social life.

      Vaginal and other genital prolapse occurs most often after difficult labor . The more children a woman has, the higher the likelihood of prolapse or prolapse of the genitals. At risk are patients who have given birth to 2 or more babies. But the following factors can also provoke genital prolapse:

      • hormonal disruptions;
      • 90,029 obesity;

      • work related to weight lifting;
      • physical fatigue;
      • anatomical disorders of the location of the internal genital organs and ligamentous apparatus;
      • 90,029 gynecological operations;

        90,029 chronic constipation;

      • congenital weakness of the pelvic floor muscles;
      • hereditary anomalies;
      • climax;
      • weight loss in a short period of time;
      • chronic cough.

      The impetus for the development of genital prolapse can be difficult labor, but the first symptoms of pathology are not always noticeable. A woman may notice violations of urination, discomfort during intercourse, slight leakage of urine at the time of laughter or physical exertion.

      With a predominant prolapse of the vaginal walls, the patient notes the following disorders:
      • feeling of incomplete emptying of the rectum or bladder;
      • Frequent urge to urinate;
      • pain in the lower back, sacrum;
      • feeling of heaviness, foreign object in the perineum;
      • urinary incontinence when coughing, sneezing, laughing, intercourse.

      All these pathological signs can appear at a fairly young age, up to 25-30 years. Contrary to popular belief, genital prolapse of the initial stage occurs even in young women, so you should not postpone a trip to the doctor and the fight against female genital prolapse in a distant box.

      Vaginal prolapse after childbirth occurs due to overstretching of muscles, rupture of the perineum or poor-quality suturing of genital tissues. During childbirth, such injuries often occur, especially when a large fetus is born.With complete prolapse of the genitals, an operation is performed with suturing of the fallen vaginal walls. The operation technique is selected taking into account the degree of prolapse, concomitant diseases and the patient’s age.

      Vaginal and uterine prolapse is not only an aesthetic problem for a woman. In addition to urinary incontinence, back pain, this disease can provoke the development of infectious complications. When the genitals move and descend into the vagina, it is easy to infect them during bathing, sexual intercourse.

      Frequent infectious and inflammatory processes contribute to the weakening of immunity, the development of pathological changes in the mucous membrane of the vagina and uterus. When the genitals are infected, the inflammatory process often spreads to the bladder or kidneys, significantly disrupting the woman’s quality of life.

      Treatment of genital prolapse

      Genital prolapse develops gradually. If a woman turns to specialists for help in time, then the disease can be treated using modern conservative methods.

      Wumbling involves a set of exercises using special simulators, vaginal balls and innovative techniques. Exercise should be regular, only in this case it is possible to strengthen the muscles of the pelvic floor and eliminate the symptoms of genital prolapse.

      At the initial stage of prolapse and prolapse of the genitals, the disease can be corrected by means of a pessary – a uterine ring that fixes the cervix and body of the uterus in an anatomical position.

      Laser treatments for genital prolapse

      With the help of new generation laser equipment, genital prolapse is eliminated at the initial stage through the use of laser systems.The most popular is the erbium laser. It is able to increase blood circulation, trigger the formation of new collagen, and enhance nutrition in the cells of the genital organs.

      Vaginal prolapse worsens a woman’s quality of life, leads to distance of the patient from relatives and friends, and lowers her self-esteem. Erbium lasers from Fotona have opened up great opportunities for solving delicate women’s problems. Unique technologies IncontiLase and IntimaLase are actively implemented in the work of gynecologists and not without reason

      • Erbium laser treatment is the most comfortable and safe procedure that goes without blood loss and pain;
      • patented techniques for correcting prolapse and prolapse of female genital organs allow, as soon as possible, to improve the well-being of patients and significantly reduce the severity of pathology;
      • the operation takes 20-30 minutes, immediately after the woman goes home;
      • there is no long recovery period;
      • laser itself has an anti-inflammatory effect, so the risk of developing infectious complications after prolapse correction is minimal;
      • laser treatment strengthens the vaginal walls, makes them more elastic, solves the problem of a large vagina, which occurs to one degree or another in most women after the birth of 2-3 children;
      • erbium lasers have a beneficial effect on the quality of a woman’s sex life and her sexual partner, make her feel more confident;
      • laser does not leave scars on the cervix and cannot provoke difficulties in subsequent natural childbirth.
