How Can severe Painful Bumps In The Labia Majora Be Treated?

I have bumps on my vagina that i am just now noticing. They do not itch, burn, they re not red or anything. What could they be?? I started tanning recently, could they be from the tanning bed? Also I m 5 days late for my period and my period has never been more than a day late. I noticed a tiny spotting earlier in my underwear but now, nothing.

Hi, I think if you are sexually active, do a urine pregnancy test at home to rule out pregnancy first. If negative, you can wait for one more week and repeat the test. If negative, you can take some medicines like progesterone for inducing periods. Regarding the bumps, it can be folliculitis. You can consult a gynecologist for pelvic examination to confirm the diagnosis. It generally goes by itself or may require antibiotics sometimes.
