I had sex with my boyfriend and experienced persistent vaginal soreness and a cottage cheese-like discharge. I tested for yeast infection, used over-the-counter treatments, and completed a 3-day prescription. My discharge is gone, but the irritation and soreness remain. I had sex again, which worsened my symptoms. What should I do to alleviate my discomfort and prevent future infections?

I have single bumps inside the opening of my vagina that itch and sting lightly when scratched or urinated on. They do not look like sores and are not constant but can be triggered by touching or moving. There is no visible change in skin appearance, but they swell up during sex and go down by morning. I have an underactive thyroid and asthma. What could these bumps be and what should I do about them?

I am a 47-year-old DES baby. I developed a Bartholin cyst three days ago. The area is hard and painful, but not growing quickly. My physician can't see me until Thursday. Can this wait? Other than sitz baths 2-3x a day, is there anything I should be doing to heal this?
