View allI'm sexually active and I've got a Mirena, but I'm worried because I've noticed these large, sometimes hard bumps on the inside of my thighs. Plus, there's this thick bump, like extra skin, under my clitoral hood, and I just found it while I was wiping. It doesn't have a head, and it hurts if I rub over it too hard. Should I be concerned about these bumps? What's going on with my skin down there?
The bumps on the inside of your thighs could be due to various reasons such as folliculitis, skin tags, or even genital warts. The thick bump under your clitoral hood may be a cyst or a blocked gland. For the bumps on the inside of your thighs, you can try using an over-the-counter topical antibiotic ointment like Neosporin to prevent infection. If they persist or worsen, you may need to see a doctor for further evaluation and treatment. As for the thick bump under your clitoral hood, it is important not to try to pop or squeeze it. You can try warm compresses to help reduce any discomfort. If it does not improve or if it becomes more painful, you should see a doctor for a proper evaluation.

Can drinking turmeric water really help prevent pregnancy or any pregnancy complications? I'm curious if it's something that could actually be effective or if there are any risks involved.
Turmeric water is not a reliable method for preventing pregnancy. It does not have any contraceptive properties. If you are looking for effective contraception, I recommend consulting with a healthcare provider to discuss suitable options such as birth control pills, condoms, or intrauterine devices.
