Around 6 months ago, I started to notice a lump on the inside of my vagina, and several smaller bumps on them that are growing, and getting hard. I'm extremely nervous about these, so I consulted my school nurse (I've known her all my life and really trust her) and she told me to go to the gynocologist for it, and also to go on birth control because I have really bad cramps when I have my period.
We called my mother together, and described the problem, and my mother said that she would make a gynocologist appointment, but she hasn't yet. It's been about a month and a half, but I'm scared to ask her again because my mother is very strict.
How can I ask her again without seeming like I'm nagging? Also, what could the bump be?

I am sexually active, but the larger bump has been around longer than I have been sexually active.
I am my boyfriend's first (everything), and he is mine, so I'm not really worried about STD's.
I don't make the appointment myself because I don't have a car or a ride.

You MUST ask her again.
Don't worry about how strict she is, this is your health we're talking about. If she refuses to make you an appointment then I suggest you make one yourself and just go. As your mother she shouldn't be putting your health at risk by procrastinating.
I don't know what the lump could be but you definitely need it checked out.

If you don't have any other symptoms and your not sexually active I would say that it's probably nothing.
However if you are sexually active it could be alot of different things and the sooner you get treated the better. Since you say your mother is strict I would say wait until you are alone together and she's in a calm relaxed mood and then start with something like "Mom, I really need to talk to you about something and I really need your help. This is difficult for me so please hear me out...." Then calmly and respectfully tell her everything. I think you will be pleasently surprised by how understanding she is if you take this approach.
Good luck.

Make sure you ask her when shes not very busy and you can get her full attention. Calmly tell her that you want to go because you are worried that there could be something wrong and make sure she knows that you are very serious. If she doesn't make an appointment for you after you ask her again then tell the school nurse. She should be able to help you out.

I am not sure what your problem is but You really should see a gynecologist. I know it may be awkward, or that you mom may think it is no big deal. But you need to ask her again. If she still won't make an appointment then go to your nurse and explain what is happening maybe she can talk to your mom or tell you about a free clinic in your area.

Go ahead and nag, your health and possibly your life is at stake.
Tell your Mom that Dr. Hudson insists that you make an appointment to see a gynecologist ASAP.

First, your Mother should be concerened enough to get you into the dr. And, if you are over 13 you can go to Planned Parenthood without a parents consent. I would suggest that and take a friend with you to make it less nerve racking. Please, get in to see a DR. before whateve it is gets worse. Go to the website I added to find the one nearest you......good luck!

First rule of thumb approximately your physique: If it concerns you sufficient to *think of* you ought to verify a rfile approximately it - PLEASE bypass see a rfile approximately it. As for conversing which contain your mom, be frank together with her. you do no longer would desire to tell her you masturbated and found the surplus skin. yet I do advise telling her which you have a project approximately your vagina and can elect to have it regarded at. At your age, a frequently used kin wellbeing care expert might probable be waiting to diagnose any abnormality and refer you to a consultant if that's definitely mandatory. good luck.
