Could Blisters On The Vagina Indicate An STD Or Is It Caused By Excessive Tampon Usage ?
I have been using tampons for about 9 years and within the past year every month like clockwork on the third day of my period I get thea bumps or blisters in the same spot, on the left side of my vagina. I have tried changing brands but that has not helped or solved anything. Could this be an std that comes regularly as if scheduled or set off by my tampon use?

Hello.
Thanks for choosing HealthcareMagic forum.
By the description you have given, it seems less likely to be an STD but more likely to be due to the tampoon use. May be it is triggered off by the wetness.Use a pad instead of tampoon next time and see the result for yourself.
