About once every month or two my clitoris area gets very itchy, usually sore/ raw and red. I typically experience more discharge during this time (white). It lasts a few days or so and then goes away. I have noticed this the last couple of months. I also just noticed a pinkish/red knot like bump at the point of the skin where my lips and clitoris meet. I only noticed it at the time of my irritation. The last piece to my awful puzzle is that during a spell like this I did engage in intercourse. We were a little more rough this time than usual but used lube that we've used before (no allergy). After intercourse my clitoris area all became very swollen. No itching occurred. But a almost raw and tender/ pink look did, as well as a burning when I urinated right after intercourse (but not continually). This has occurred before and the swelling goes down within a few days. I'm beginning to become very concerned that all this is connected and I have a serious problem in need of treatment. I have been tested for STDs (clean) before but not as recently as needed. I do not feel like I've been exposed, however. I have visited my OBGYN since experiencing this monthly problem and have showed no signs of infection to the doctor. However, I have not been there at the current time of a spell.
