I am 77 years old and discovered a large, pea-sized, round, solid lump on the outside of my vaginal area, just to the right of my vaginal opening. The lump has been present for a couple of months and seems to have grown larger. It is smooth, solid, and not painful or itchy. I am currently not using any medications, and I have a clean bill of health from my internist. What could this lump be, and what should I do about it?

The lump you described could be an inclusion cyst or a Gartner's duct cyst, both of which are benign...

What could be the reason for feeling pain at the ovary location after receiving the COVID-19 vaccination? The pain is not permanent and often appears and disappears on its own. I also experienced similar pain after the first HPV vaccination. Could you please help me with this?

Why am I experiencing vaginal burning during sex, and what could be the potential causes?

I'm concerned about symptoms affecting my vagina, including discharge, swelling, and pain during urination. I'm 25 years old, have been using June Fe birth control daily, and recently ended my period. I haven't shaved or had sexual activity in the past two weeks, and I'm noticing abnormal white discharge that is more mucousy-like with no change in odor. I took a diflucan yesterday but it doesn't seem to be helping. What could be causing these symptoms and what can I do to treat them?

I have been experiencing a recurring discharge with a certain smell since May 2019, which often returns after intercourse. The discharge can be white or yellow, and there are occasional burning sensations, itching, and swelling. I have never had a pap test or pelvic exam. Should I get checked out, or is there something I can buy at the store to treat myself?

I had unprotected sex with two different men around my ovulation period. I took a pregnancy test on August 14 which was negative, and another on August 16 which was positive. My son resembles one of the men more than the other. Which man is most likely the father and how can I confirm this?
