Just a bit concerned here and normally I would go and see a doctor but I might as well just get this clear first, Just recently I have been getting pimples on my pubic area... But I recently shaved for the first time (couple weeks ago) but now have let it all grow back in, could it be because of that or could it be something else? Ive been in a steady relationship for a while now and I got a check up a couple months ago and I was all clear, so that shouldn't be a problem there. Any help would be great

You should go see a Doctor whenever something new like this pops up. More than likely you are on the right track thinking it's related to shaving. Ingrown hairs can become an annoying side effect of shaving.

Sounds like that is what this is. The best way to shave is with the grain and you want to exfoliate beforehand, making the hair softer and prepare your skin for the shave.

Exfoliators which contain something like salicylic acid are best.
