Swollen vaginal lips

My boyfriend and I haven't seen eachother for a few months! About a week ago we saw eachother again for the first time . We have sex now All the time and now my vaginal lips are really swollen. I wouldn't have noticed it unless he said something but now they hurt a little when I touch them, is that just from having a lot of sex? Will it go away? Or do I have to go to the gyno? I'm out at school and i don't have a gyno out here and i fell a little uncomfortable going to see the male gyno on campus!! Please help!!

i have and have had it b4 the same thing with the swollen lips i went to the doctors and it actually turned out to be bacterial vaginitus which is kind of like a yeast infection but is more popular it can be caused by tight panties that are not breathable, douching scented bath soap or perfumes there are a few other things that can cause it too but douching is actually a bad thing to do it can cause the bacteria that is supposed to be there for protection to go into over drive hence causing infections. there is medicine that your doctor can prescribe that you use for 3 to 5 days just like for a yeast infection and it goes away.
i hope this helps

Me and my boyfriend have had sex recently and frequently and never had a problem.
But since yesterday night, my vagina was unbearingly itchy, and today I noticed a white odourless discharge. Also just a few minutes ago I realized I was really sore down there, and I noticed that my left inner labia was slightly swollen.
This has NEVER happened before.
Could this be a yeast infection? Something else?
Any advice?
Please let me know as soon as you can!
