What Causes Lumps In The Labia Minora?
I have outbreaks of tiny lumps in my labia minora, they occur on both sides an slightly on the outside edges . sometimes they are itchy or feel like im being poked with a pin or painful. Some of them swell larger and drain. I had a hysterectomy but still have my ovaries and am not sure if this coincides with hormone fluctuations- im 45

Hi Dear !! Thanks for your query to HCM .
Read and reviewed your query and health concerns.
You seems to suffer from-Pimples of the Labia Minora-as they come in numbers and drain and vanish.
Recent history of hysterectomy with mons-pubic shaving would expose you more to Boils of the shaven hairfollicles.
Accompanied Vaginitis needs to be ruled out-as you have recurring pains and itching at the site.
Hormonal flucuations could be thought of, but for your age-of 45,at which menopause would reduce possibility of Pimples of Minora-from estrogenic hormones in your case, but the personal variation with option of hormonal connection of these Minora Pimples could not be ruled out.
Other accompanied-causes-as bartholian Cysts /Herpes/Diabetes and others need to be ruled out with Gynec Second opinion.
Hope this would help you to plan further care of this complex illness of yours.
