Help!
I have a swollen down below and am not sure where exactly this part of my body is called I thought it was my clitoris but I have heard its not. I haven't been to the doctors about it am scared am going to have test done like something like a smear test or blood test. Am just looking for advice on what I should do and if you could help. It sort of hurts when I pee and I have looked up other websites for information but they all say about sexuliy tranmited infections and am a bit to young for anything like that so if you can help please do.

I find it hard to talk to my mum about this sort of thing I have in the past but what she said is that if it was anything serious something would have happened by now. And I have had it for about 2 years now I think its got I tiny bit worse over they couple of years.I am scared if it is something bad and how soon are we talking about going to the doctors.

Even if you haven't had Intercorse, there's still a chance that you could have gotten a sexually transmitted disease by "other stuff" such as fingering or oral sex.
But since you've said that you've had it for 2 years, I don't think that's it.

Pap smears are not painful, so there's no reason to be scared by them. They're just a little uncomfortable.
And blood tests aren't much worse. I'd prefer one over a smear but that's just me.

You definitely need to see a doctor.

Could this be that I might possibly have a yeast infection? And am 14 if that helps any I have heard that it could just be my body maturing but I feel I still want to go to the doctors even just for a check up?

You will have to go to the doctor, there's no other choice.

As someone else already mentioned, we can't give you a diagnosis over the internet.

In order to get an accurate diagnosis tests have to be run. Urine, blood, maybe a pap smear. We can't do those tests, we don't have access to the one thing we'd need to give you a diagnosis, and that one thing is you.

Please go to your doctor. Tell your mother about this, tell her that you're worried, that you're scared. She is responsible for your health because you're only 14.

Let us know how it goes.

Good luck.

If this has been going on for so long then I really doubt it's just a yeast infection, whatyever it is could potentially be serious though so you NEED to go see a physician.
