Lumps In Genital Area After Or Before Menses. What Could It Be?
Hi Dr. Grief,
I always get these lumps on my genital area, sometimes in labia, groin during my pre, during and post menstrual cycle. It starts with just a bump and as the days go by it becomes painful and reddish. After several days, it subsides by itself. I never had sex in my life. I don't know if it's a boil, pimple or anything else. Or is it due to hormonal changes?
Thanks,
Jane

Hi,
It seems that this might be due to poor hygiene during period, before and after.
During this time keep local part clean, hygienic ,dry and airy.
Change new pads frequently.
Clean your genitals with plain water inside and out while taking bath.
Ok and take care.
