Recently, I started feeling this strange itching sensation after sex, which would subside a day later. It almost feels like a sharp itching that is somewhat insatiable with minor burning. I let it go thinking that it was simply because the medicine I take causes lubrication issues and I was a bit irritated from sexual friction. However, it seems to have gotten worse, accompanied by a full feeling, almost like a small piece of tampon is stuck at the opening of my vagina. I ended up taking a look down there and noticed a larger than usual piece of skin towards the bottom, along with other sections that look lumpy or broken off (almost like my hymen has torn into odd pieces). I definitely also have a yeast infection (sigh). I was just at the Gynecologist this past year and she didn’t mention any problems. I also got a full set of STD tests, which came back negative. I have been in a monogamous relationship for two years and my partner has shown no symptoms of any STDs. Any idea what this is? Skin tags? Weird tearing that’s irritated from friction?
Side note: Image is accidentally sideways. The large lump is at the bottom of the vaginal opening.
The skin tags you are talking about are hymenal tags remenants. It is normal.
