i hope I am not being insensitive by posting here but I am rather worried and my doctors appointment isn't for a week so I would like to hear some stories of peoples experiences. I am rather young but all the signs are pointing towards Vulvar cancer and it's rather concerning.
Recently my vagina has just felt off I can't explain it fully but you know your own vagina and mine has just not seemed itself. I kept thinking I had BV over the last few months but the doctor has said it is not. I've had an on and off weird sting/burn when going to the toilet and a random itchiness of my vulvar. The other day I bled heavy after sex with my partner which is rare for me and confused me. I went to the doctor to get treated for UTI/BV but it was never that.
Then Last week I noticed a small lump on (and within??) my labia majora kinda in line with my clitoris, it was sore for a few days but only when it would rub against my knickers. Since last week it has grown from a tiny little thing comparable to the size of an ingrown hair to lump the size of a large pea (but feels kinda oblong/oval rather than spherical like a edamame). The skin on top of the lump is red and really smooth (maybe cause it’s stretched idk) and the lump is both above the skin and below the skin. The skin on my labia surrounding the lump is lighter than usual and pink and kinda swollen. The lump is not really painful at all now and it doesn’t look like it can be popped, I’ve tried to squeeze the heck out of it but nothing is happening, it doesn't have a head like a spot it's round but also relatively flat. Upon doing further examination of my vulvar and my labia majora I have noticed that my mole on my labia looks different, almost black rather than brown and spread out a little. Now my mind is racing and I am really anxious that I have vulvar cancer, I am young (24) so I know it's extremely rare but my mind is racing and I can't put myself at ease.
i have googled and Google has suggested many cysts, after many long hours on Google what I have looks nothing like anything and im just so worried. I can't find an explanation for it and im worried when I go to my doctors appointment that they won't take me seriously because I am so young.
