Pregnant, Bumps On Labia Minora, Moist Around Labia, Preeclampsia Suspected. History Of Hpv, Genital Warts. Advise?

Hi, I'm 37 weeks and two days pregnant. It seemed to have been just over night that I developed two bumps that are slightly bigger than pea size and they have now been there for approx 3 to 4 days. They seem bigger only bc i keep messing with them. They are located on my labia minora and are right across from each other to the left and right labia. . I just had a Brazilian wax approx. 2 weeks ago and I've noticed as I'm further in my pregnancy that I'm constantly moist around my labia and even between my labia and upper thighs. I felt the bumps a day or two after my doctor told me I may have preeclampsia so I've been stressed over that really worried bc I'm now getting worked up for that as well. I do have a hx of hpv, genital warts but have only had one outbreak and that was ten years ago. These bumps also do not appear to be those same type of bumps I experienced then. They are firm and seem like I could pop them but they won't pop.

Hi,
Thanks for the query.
The bumps you mentioned could be bartholin cysts.
The bartholin gland duct will open in the labia minora, between the upper twothirds and lower one third on either side.
When the duct gets blocked cyst will develop.
There is possibility of infection due to the waxing. White discharge also increases during pregnancy generally.
If the discharge is foul smelling and causing itching it can be pathological.
So you once consult gynecologist, get examined and take treatment for both the conditions.

Take care.
