please please help me

[HoneyFlavoredPocky]

i have some questions regarding my body and my mind. first the physical problem, then later psychological. i will really appreiciate any help offered.

-lady problem-

alright, i heard the rumor that if you have strange bumps on your breasts, then there is a chance of having a form of cancer. is this true?

as well, the white stuff, which i heard is normal to have 24-7...healthy really, i heard that if it turns yellow or smells bad, then it is a sign of a STD. is this also true?

please help me. i am sooo worried!


thankyou very much *bows*

Ok, so for the first problem - if you have lumps, (not bumps) in your breasts (next to the armpit, under your breast etc) see a doctor immediately. This could be cancer.

As for bumps, not necessarily. If there are bumps on your skin, it could be an irritation, blackheads or hair follicles. If you have little lumps in your nipples, these could be nodules and are just fat deposits (perfectly normal and go away :D)

I don't know much about white stuff. If it turns yellow and smells bad, it probably isn't an STD, and more likely an infection. I think you should see your doctor about this

As for the white stuff, it could be a vaginal yeast infection, but dependent on your sexual activity, could also be a STD.

how so?

+me never had sex+

[MoveAlong]

If you've never had sex, it couldn't be an STI/STD. If there's discharge there that is thick, colored and has a bad odor (may also itch), it could be an infection. To get rid of this, you should see a doctor (I've read from a few places that 70% of women who suspected they had a vaginal infection and got over-the-counter medicines did not have a vaginal infection).

Again, see the doctor if this is reocurring and you have any of the above symptoms for the best treatment :)

alright, if i get the chance i will. thankyou

can't you be born with an std?

[Maverick]

Yes, it is possible to be born with a STD. If the mom has gonorrhea, herpes, HPV, HIV, syphilis, or a few others while pregnant, it can be passed from the mother to the baby during the pregnancy.
