TMI SORRY - please help

this is a little tmi however i have issues w sweating and during the heatwave I seem to have developed vaginal acne and have a few pimples down there on the vulva

I’m just wondering if anyone had the same and what they did to get rid of them?

Obviously I’m washing, exfoliating and changing underwear twice a day since I noticed, I’m furious I have this omg it’s so so embarrassing , 1 spot has disappeared but it’s been 2 weeks now and I’m worrying and feel so disgusting I just want them gone.

Too embarrassed to go to a doctor, so I’d appreciate if you could comment some treatments 😭😭🤍 creams or body washes anything!

I know benzoyl peroxide helps but there’s so many products I don’t know what to buy..

Hi lovely! I know you're embarrassed, but you really don't have to be.

I think you should see a doctor, as they'll be able to offer the best advice, and possibly prescribe something that's safe to use on such a sensitive area.

They'll also be able to rule out any nasty underlying causes.

Please please be careful about any products you use on your vulva, the skin is so sensitive you don't want to make it worse!

It could be ingrown hairs they're very common. I work in a salon so wax people down there and let me tell you spots down there are far far more common than you think! It's from sweat or ingrown hairs
