    Why do I have ingrown hairs all over my vagina?
    This really sucks I'm 21 and never have gone through this. I've had a baby if it matters. But I have a bunch of pimple/blister things all over my vagina maybe I can see like the black hairs in it.
    There's more then one. I think it's the way I shaved I'm sexually active but. With one guy and we've been together a year and neither of us has had this problem. I can barley sit down and its really bothering me they sting. I made a appointment but its not until next week. I don't know what to do it's the worst ever

    Your vagina is the "tube," the birth canal, and is hairless.

    Could you be allergic to a new soap or laundry detergent or fabric?

    Yes, it sounds like you may have ingrown hairs due to shaving. There is little you can do aside from letting them grow out and stop shaving.

    Your doctor can, for lack of a better term, cut them out. It doesn't hurt. If it's a deep ingrown hair that's causing a raised bump, very painful, then he will give you a local and cut open the bump, remove the hair. Sadly I've had to do this a few times. I don't shave, but for some reason I do get ingrown hairs around my panty line very often. I also had an ingrown hair on my left breast! I don't even have hair on my breasts! Well, none that are visible anyway.

    See your doctor. Until then, don't pop them yourself, it will just make things worse.
