Do you think this is genital wart? I fear that I have genital warts. I have a tiny little white bumps on the outside of my labia, they are barely perceptible. They do not itch, and they do not look at all like those I saw in the photos online. Do you think this is what it might be? Yes, I had unprotected sex with several people and safe sex with a number of people in recent months. The first time I noticed these bumps was like three days after sex with a man again. I go to the doctor, but not for another week or two.
In addition, "there", but not in the vaginal area, I get buttons, 2 so far on my thigh (near the bikini line, but more on my thigh) and another one on my stomach in the trick (sorry for being graphic) where folds of my stomach, in the pocket Droopy 'I had to have kids.
The only way to absolutely sure of what you have is to see a doctor.
Genital warts usually appear as soft, moist, pink or flesh colored swellings, usually in the genital area. They can be raised or flat, single or multiple, small or large, shaped and sometimes cauliflower. They can appear on the vulva, in or around the vagina or anus, on the cervix, and penis, scrotum, groin or thigh. After sexual contact with an infected person, warts may appear within weeks or months, or not at all. The only way to diagnose must be examined by a doctor.
You should also know that the best way to prevent most STDs, including HIV acondom is to use each time you had sex. For most STDs and HIV, it only takes one unprotected intercourse to become infected.
Good luck.

What are the symptoms?
HPV infection usually does not cause symptoms. Most HPV infections are latent, meaning that the virus is present but not multiplying or producing signs of infection. Visible genital warts appear only during active infection. (However, you can spread the virus even if you do not have warts.) Warts can look like bunches of cauliflower or like tiny flat, white areas that may be difficult to see.
When symptoms occur, they usually occur 2-3 months after infection. However, they can grow from three weeks to several years after infection. Symptoms may include irritation, itching and bleeding.
How are genital warts diagnosed?
A health professional usually diagnoses genital warts by using medical history and physical examination. During the medical history, your health professional questions about the possible risk factors for warts, such as sex, if you recently had sex.
He or she will do a physical examination to detect signs of genital warts or other sexually transmitted diseases. Women will have a gynecological exam, including a Pap test. If the examination reveals abnormal tissue, but a definitive diagnosis can be made, your health professional can take a sample of tissue (known as a biopsy) for laboratory tests to identify the tissue
Going to the doctor
go to doctors for a specific diagnoises
Is it better if you checked with a professional to see you and tell you exactly what is wrong, then taking a response from us that can not see what it is.
go to the doctor for goodness sake. sounds like you are not very demanding and have had several partners in a short period of time. you should be tested for everything, even if it is not warts
The best and the only one who is going to the Dominican Republic and get tested. Do not freak out without knowing. And please use protection every time you do not want to have an incurable STD. I was lucky I only had HPV and herpes, and nothing else. And by the way I was not fooled around my bf was! good luck and hope that cooperation at all.
