White vaginal bumps

I was looking at my vagina in the mirror and I noticed that inside on one side there were 3 small white bumps in a line. At times I am a little irritated at that area. What could those bumps be and what can I do to get rid of them or treat them?

Females have something called a hymen which bleeds the 1s time a girl has sex. If the skin their gets teared. And dont be afraid of small white bumps. Check them out if you can with a md. But dont get paranoid

The tiny white pimple type (white heads) bumps around the labia outside of the vagina are fatty deposits. They are harmless, though gross to look at and feel.  Yes they are very freaky and scary if you don't understand what they are.  It's pretty much like acne.  Sweating, perfume-type wipes, etc. causes them to worsen.  Someone mentioned keeping their laptop in their laps and the heat making things worse.  Don't try to pop them, you can get an infection and besides that hurts like heck!  If you're worried, see your doc. tell your mom, don't be afraid to reach out to another woman or your boyfriend.  We are all human and this is a natural occurance, nothing to be ashamed or embarrassed of.  Sometimes they aren't as bad as other times.... keep a journal.  I freaked out too when I first noticed them, but no matter what else was going on in my brain, common sense kept telling me it was like any other white bump under the skin. Some kind of clogged pore.  good luck ladies and God bless ya'll!

Hi, I sorta have a similar story, I was a virgin till about a year ago when I met my boyfriend, we are competly in love however, there's a catch. Bout 5 months ago I had 3 weird painful bumps around my vag, I didnt really think anything of it tll I went to the doctor and was diagnose with herpes. Worst moment of my whole entire life, we are still together and we help each other, but it has changed so many things in my life. I'm afraid to have kids now, and it's just embarrassing, Jesus....had sex once with the person I love and it happened to me. Be careful ladies, I'm only 16 and my life is changed forever, you probably think it will never happen to you, but 1 in 4 people have it, which means if you have sex with more than three people, you probably have it
