Question
Im always feeling full in my lower abdomen. I will pee a bit frequently but there is no pain during urination. Sometimes i'll get discharge (greenish-yellowish) but only when im out from the house. And i shave down there. Recently i noticed two very tiny white bumps near my vagina. i was wondering if it's cause by shavings? or is it herpes? I went for Pap smear and doctor said that my cervix is very healthy but there's a lot of white cells. What does it mean?
Answer
It means you are normal. The white cells are probably from discharge and if you had a normal pap and negative STD tests, there is nothing to worry about. The bumps are probably from shaving in the pubic area and I don't really recommend that, because of the sensitivity of the area and potential for skin infection.
