I’ve had these bumps for almost a year. The PA at my college health center said they kinda looked like HPV. I had cryotherapy done 4 times and they never went away. Please help!!

Hi Re44246,
I don’t think you have genital warts. In any case, were you vaccinated against HPV when you were at school? If you received Gardasil-4 or Gardasil-9, then you are protected from genital warts, as well as cervical cancer.
The photos suggest you have vestibular papillomatosis (Google it). It’s very common and easily mistaken for genital warts. I’m not surprised cryotherapy hasn’t worked- these little lumps/bumps are part of your normal vaginal anatomy!! Another clue to the diagnosis is that the photos you’ve uploaded show that they are symmetrical (i.e. similar in density and appearances either side of the midline).
Stop the cryo’ and do some background reading.
Rgds,
Adhari.
