Sharp, knife-like pains in my vagina...what is it?

My vagina has been getting very excruciating pains (almost knife-like) for the past few days.

They occur in short bursts (approximately one minute at a time) every hour-and-a-half or so.

Any suggestions or ideas on what this could be?

It could mean that your period is coming instead of getting lower back cramps my cramps are actually in my vagina area

I'm having the exact same pains in my vaginal. It started when I was five months pregnant and the ob told me it was due to the pregnancy. My son is now 15 months and I'm still having this pain. I was told to have a hysterectomy but reading these comments confirms that would've been a mistake. I have to sit in the tub for any type of relief. It hurts to pee, have sex, stand for too long, sit for too long. It hurts literally all day. I've Google docs everything and been to several doctors who have all done the same thing. Give me antibiotics and never find an infection. I have a gynecologist appointment Monday and I'm praying with everything in me that they find something. We need a specialist cause I don't think it's anything that can be saw with the naked eye. One doctor said that it could very well be a nerve issue also. Anyways I'll keep you posted and hope you do the same if yall get news of what it could be.

Nerve could be yes my sister had similar issues in her lower back with the way the baby's head was positioned she's continued to have the same back pain forever now it's like the baby's head was heavy and pushing on a certain nerve and broke it and it can never be fixed so sad

It could be a small infection. I had something similar that started shortly after my husband and I started using condoms. I used some super soft soap (lavender bar soap from Doterra) and gently washed the exterior of my vagina. It took a couple weeks but it's gone and hasn't returned.

Hey! I'm 13 too and just right now I experianced the most painful ful outburst in my vagina. I am sleeping right now but suddenly it fells like daggers when in my vagina. I am DEFINITELY a virgin. I'm nervous.is something wrong with me?
Idk if it the same for anyone else, but I'm 13 and the shocks of pain only happen on the right side. What does this mean and how do I get rid of it? :(
I'm 13 too and it's not a very sharp pain but it does sort of hurt,and it sort of just happens for like a minute or two every couple hours. And I know for a fact I'm not pregnant and I'm a vergin so I don't know
