HELP! About 5 weeks ago I saw two strands of hair under my clitoral hood. So I lifted up my clitoral hood and wiped it out, but I wiped my actual clit too hard. Ever since then I’ve been very sensitive depending on my movements. About a week after that I took a hot bath and my area SWELLED UP. I went to the doctor and she says there could be a cut on my clit from the hair. (No yeast infections or anything) but if that was the case it would’ve healed by now
I am 13 weeks on depo & getting off
I JUST WANT TO BE BETTER & NORMAL, how much longer do I have to wait? Is there nerve irritation? Or maybe a micro cut or something? HAS ANYONE EVER DONE THIS BEFORE?

I'm not sure. You did have a doctor look at it which is good. They have a spray you can use that they give women after childbirth that helps with pain. Ask your doctor about it. They sell Dermoplast pain relieving spray which I used after a tear from having a child. It helped. They have creams too that you can have prescribed for you which relieves the pain. But it should heal. Give it time.

I seem to have a very sensitive clitoris. I find non-direct stimulation to be very pleasurable when I'm masturbating, and rubbing around the area in circular motions is all I really do. I find fingering/insertion into my vagina to be really uncomfortable, and my clit is too sensitive for direct stimulation. Direct contact with my clit is very unpleasant, and if it is stimulated too much, it is impossible for me to even finish. This can be very frustrating. I can't always bring myself to orgasm when I'm masturbating even if I'm really horny. My boyfriend isn't all that great at the rubbing technique, and that bothers him even more than it bothers me because he wants to be able to pleasure me. Cunnilingus doesn't work either. The thought of it is really appealing, and I want to enjoy it, but I don't. It gives my clit too much direct stimulation, and when that happens, nothing feels pleasurable anymore. What could cause my clitoris to be this sensitive? Is it just the way my body is and I'll have to deal with it? Will I never be able to fully experience that type of sexual pleasure, or is there something that can be done to overcome this problem? I'm not stressed out or anything, so that's not the problem. I really hope that there's a solution, because I find this to be very disheartening and I want to enjoy sex but am worried I'll never be capable of it.
Before we go anywhere else with this, is this something you have discussed with the healthcare provider(s) you have seen about your suspected vaginismus you posted about last year?
I ask because some of my answers here would vary depending on if this is something your healthcare providers think or suspect is related to that condition, or the childhood genital injury you mentioned. If it is something they feel is related, it would be helpful if you could fill me in on what they, thus far, suspect the cause of the vaginismus is (if they have since diagnosed you with that condition).

My doctor's appointment isn't until mid-March, so I haven't seen my doctor about that yet. Should I wait and just ask them about this as well? I didn't know if this would be related or if it would be something else, so I just decided I'd try to find out anything I could in the meantime. I wouldn't mind waiting until my doctor's appointment and then getting back to you about what they say if that would be best, though.
Good gravy, you've had to wait from November until the middle of March for a basic OB/GYN appointment?!? That is an awfully long wait. Argh. If you'd like help finding a provider who can see you sooner, I'd be glad to help with that if you'd like.
Since you haven't yet seen anyone, we obviously can't know if you do have vaginismus, and if so, if this is related. We'll obviously need to wait on some of this until we do know more.
But in the meantime, I think we can clearly know that hypersensitivity with your genitals, in general, is an issue for you, even if we can't know why. And by all means, this can just be a variation, rather than something that must be linked to a health condition. It also can be a variation that's totally manageable.
It sounds to me like you have the idea that there is one level of sensitivity for genitals to have: there's not. same goes for what people do and do not enjoy and find comfortable. Some people love very direct external clitoris stimulation, others don't like it at all. There's no "normal" with either of these, or everything in between, just variation.
The deal with any kind of sex is that what works for us and feels good needs to be based on our own bodies, very uniquely. So, if for you, direct stimulus doesn't feel good, then that's not something you or partners will be doing. And it sounds like for you and your partner, some of the deal here is just about a learning curve: about it taking time -- as it always does, however a body is -- to learn together what DOES feel good to you, and to each make whatever adjustments you need so that whatever kind of sex you're exploring is about you and feels good for you, rather than anyone doing what someone else may have liked, or what either of you think you "should" be doing.
Can you fill me in on how that learning process is going? How long have you and your partner been together exploring sexual activities? How is communication with you two? When you talk about what does and doesn't feel good, is your partner responsive to that, and good about making adjustments and trying things differently? Do you feel able to experiment together and have it be joyful, rather than coming to it with the idea that finding out what works for you is a drag for some reason?
Btw, I don't know what you mean when you express concern about "that type of sexual pleasure." What type do you mean? I'm in a similar boat with you saying you worry you'll never be capable of sex. Sex is so diverse, and it sounds like you already have been/are engaging in and enjoying some sexual activities, like masturbation and manual sex with indirect clitoral stimulation, so we know that, clearly, you and your body are capable of participating in at least some kinds of sex already.

I haven't had to wait since November. I just made the post about worrying I might have vaginismus about a week ago. I actually went to the doctor last month, but I didn't really feel the need to bring this issue up. I thought the clitoral sensitivity might just be something I'd always have to deal with, and I'm kind of shy and uncomfortable talking about that sort of thing, so I didn't think it was important enough to bring up. I didn't really start trying to explore the inside of my vagina more until after that appointment, so I wasn't super worried about that until recently. My last doctor's appointment was just a check up to see how I was doing on some medication, and I also brought up that I thought I might have social anxiety. I started crying almost as soon as I started talking about that (which I didn't expect to happen), and she put me on some anxiety medication. My next appointment was supposed to be just a check up to see how I was doing on the anxiety medication, but when I built up the courage to bring up my vaginal worries to my mom, she said we should call and say I want to have a vaginal examination, too. I haven't had one yet, and my doctor was going to wait until I had penis-in-vagina sex to give me my first pap smear or anything because she said that would make it more comfortable. But now since I'm worried I won't be able to do that, I decided I want to go ahead and get looked at. I'm really nervous about the appointment. I'm worried that when I try to bring up my concerns I'll start to cry again and won't be able to continue describing my concerns. I'm also worried that the examination will be uncomfortable and that I'll tense up and won't even be able to get examined.
I feel like the learning process has been going just alright. We've been exploring sexual activities for a little over a year, but we don't do it super often, and when we do it's really rare that that we have complete privacy because we both still live with our parents, so we're usually pretty cautious and stay covered up with blankets and stuff which makes it more difficult to really try to direct him with what to do. We've been together for a while, our relationship is very serious and committed, and we're really close (our families already consider us to be family), so our parents probably know that we do stuff, but we still don't want to get walked in on or anything. I'm more worried about it than he is, and sometimes I get really nervous, so I'm sure that contributes to my problems, but even when we're alone and I'm completely into it and relaxed I still have trouble. We aren't uncomfortable with communication, the problem is that I don't really know how to describe to him what to do and how to adjust what he's doing. He tries his best to follow my direction, and he has been able to bring me to orgasm a couple of times by rubbing around my clitoral area without coming into direct contact with my clit, but so far he hasn't really gotten it down to where he can do the same thing consistently well every time. I don't blame him, though. I still can't get it down for myself either and am not successful every time, so I'm not that great at giving directions. I'm doing pretty well with learning how to pleasure him, and he feels bad that he can't return that to me. We can experiment together and have it be joyful. We always go into it with happiness and excitement. Although I wish I could experience as much pleasure as he does, it doesn't bother me as much as it bothers him that I am able to finish significantly less often. Closer to when we first started experimenting, he would feel really upset that he wasn't able to make me come and felt like he wasn't good enough. He has gotten better about not blaming himself, though. We're both really supportive of each other and give each other a lot of reassurance, so even though we are both disappointed when it doesn't work out for me, it's never a negative experience. We just accept it and cuddle for a while.
When I say "that type of sexual pleasure", I mostly mean the clitoral stimulation. So far it's like we have to go about it so carefully so we don't make a wrong movement that would turn off my physical pleasure even if I'm still aroused mentally and then can't get that release. It's like it has to be gone about a certain way, like there's one specific formula, so to say, and that's the only way I can successfully get off. I don't want it to have to be that difficult. I don't want to have to constantly be thinking about every movement I'm making and make sure I'm doing it "right". I just want to be able to let go and move in any way my body wants without the pleasurable stimulation disappearing. I'm also worried that my pleasure from penis-in-vagina sex will be directly tied to clitoral stimulation, so if that goes wrong I won't get any physical pleasure. I am glad that we can get it right at least occasionally, though. I hope we do get better with more practice.

So you think handing the doctor a list to read would be alright? I wanted to do that before, but my mom said, "She's not going to want to sit there and read a list; she'll want to hear it from you." So, when I brought up the anxiety I had written a long list to read off of, but could only get through a couple of bullet points. I would feel a lot more comfortable just handing her the list to read on her own, though, so I don't see why it would bother her.
I guess I do need to try to stop connecting sexual pleasure with orgasms and genital pleasure. I guess I already don't completely feel that way; I do already experience significant pleasure almost everywhere else on my body when he touches me. I'm really ticklish, so practically any place he caresses (or licks) my skin feels sensitive and ticklish and I absolutely LOVE how it feels and it's very arousing. That's part of the reason why I don't want him to feel so bad, because he definitely gives me immense pleasure in other ways. I'm perfectly content simply being in his presence. So, we do already give a lot of attention to other parts of our bodies, and we're definitely connected in our hearts and minds. I suppose I could just be putting too much pressure on myself to experience the same degree of pleasure in my genitals as well. Maybe I set my expectations on that specific area too high.
We probably do need to be more patient with the learning curve, as well. I wish we did have more privacy, and we would like to move out, but that wouldn't be a smart financial move at this time.
Thank you for your thoughts and advice.
Handing a doctor a list -- make it less than a page, and not in a tiny font -- is absolutely all right. Many providers actually appreciate that, because it's clear. And if you give it to reception when you go in, then they can review it the same way they'd review your chart if you were a returning patient.
Mind, it's not a substitute for a conversation, it's a conversation starter. So, they'll still want to talk with you, but if you think it'll work better for you to lead with that, and then let them ask the questions, by all means, do that. Ultimately, to work well together, you just want to figure out how you can best communicate with a provider, and they will generally be on board with whatever way that is, especially if the alternative is that you aren't able to communicate well at all. Trying to pull information out of people when you work in care is much more trying than reading a list. Again, if you had a chart, they'd be reading that, so it's not like reading about a patient before seeing them is unusual.
So, it sounds like another piece here is that your partner appears to feel bad about your sexual respon
