Over the last year my periods have changed which is obviously my hormones anyway over the past 6 months I have been getting spots yes spot as in the whitehead version on my labia and they are very painful, is this normal or should I be arranging a visit to my gp. Tia

make an appt with your G.P. or family planning as you can be annonymous there if you are embarrassed.

A friend of mine told me she had somethng similar a few years back - she said they were almost blister-like. It turned out to be Herpes (sorry, don't want to worry you but thought better mention it)

Yes, definitely go to the GP, or if it's a man and you're embarrassed, try making an appointment with the practise nurse.

Hope it turns out to be nothing to worry about.

If they are only occasional, maybe they are ingrown hairs-type-of-spots?

If there are lots, that would suggest something else and you'd be better seeing your local GUM clinic.
