Lump On Mons Pubis, Hurts To Touch. What Should I Do?
I have a lump on my mons pubis . Im only 13 & im still a virgin , but im scared to tell my mom. Ive never shaved down there before, and ive looked this up on Google, but I dont think, its a cyst, an ingrown har, or a pimple . Its not popable & it takes up too much space to be an ingrown hair . It hurts when I touch it & it first showed when I was about to start my first period about 3 years ago & its back, much more painful. what should I do ?
