Hello,
With the question "What disease is vaginal acne a sign of?", the doctor would like to answer as follows:
During the menstrual cycle, pain often appears in the lower abdomen, which is abdominal pain. menstruation. Some women with mild menstrual cramps don't need medication, but some have more pain. The cause is usually because the body secretes too much of a hormone called prostaglandin or someone is sensitive to pain, causing the uterus to contract too strongly, causing more pain. Especially during menstruation, you have pain to the point of fainting and often do not have a period for 2-3 months, this is an unusual phenomenon.
Regarding the phenomenon of acne in the vagina, it is possible that it is a nabothian cyst of the cervix. Nabothian cysts are formed from the epithelial cells of the cervix. These nabothian cysts appear to be quite small at first, but can then grow larger. Nabothian cyst is simply a benign lesion of the cervix, so it is not dangerous and does not change the menstrual cycle. This cyst only affects a woman's reproductive health when accompanied by lesions or complications. With the above symptoms, you should see a gynecologist to find the cause and have the best treatment.
