Lump found just inside vagina
by Kat103, Apr 10, 2007 12:00AM
Hi i was just wondering if you could help me. i recently found a white lump just inside my vagina. sometimes during intercourse, i find it very painful when my partner enters me. the pain is like a burning/stinging sensation. Also i have a whiteish discherge, i have had treatment for yeast infections but this discharge still persists. my periods are also acting very weird. im on the pill (microlite), last month my period lasted for 5 days and i had quite heavy bleeding, this month it last about 3 days and was very light, so much so that i only had to wear pantyliners instead of sanitory pads. its starting to worry me abit.
Thank you for reading.

Progestin only pills can sometimes cause dryness in the vagina, as awll as menstrual irregularity. Please try a vaginal lubricant like AstroGlide, applied before your next intercourse. Talk to your provider about improving cycle control, perhaps with another contraceptive.

have you ever been pregnant? during my last pregnancy i found a lump like this and i told the doctor. he said that its a 'fluid filled cyst' and its common with pregnant women due to hormones. during my delivery, he was able to pop it instead of cut it out. it came back and he did it again in the office at my 6wk check up and so far it hasnt came back yet. its filled with white fluid, like puss or something. its no big deal, but i'd get it popped or removed if i were you.
