Suggest Treatment For Swollen Stiff Labia

My labia seems to be very stiff lately. It isn t painful and there aren t any bumps. I felt a lot of discharge and went to clean up and noticed my labia felt stiff and swollen but not painful. I believe I m pregnant but I have yet to miss my period, it should be starting in a few days. I m waiting til after a missed period to test. Could the stiffened labia be caused by pregnancy?

Hi

It is possible but there are other causes as well like friction wound from sexual contact, hormonal imbalances resulting in less lubrication, infections, etc.

If you start experiencing any new symptoms then please report to your doctor for a urine analysis and a vaginal swab test to help find the cause for your symptom. But go ahead with a home pregnancy test to be conducted at least 2 weeks from the last date of sexual contact using an early morning urine sample for most accurate results.

Best wishes
