Weird shooting clitoris pain?

Unread post by Drthunder57 »

For the past few weeks I’ve been experiencing random sharp pain on and under my clitoris. It comes and goes but today it’s been very consistent. It happens sometimes when I change position but also comes every few minutes when I’m not moving. I understand yall can’t provide medical advice but I’m wondering if this is common and what to do about it? I’ve also been super anxious lately so I don’t know if that has anything to do with it, but probably not. Thank you guys!!

Hey there.

Have you had anything else going on that seems off besides the pain? Any unusual discharges or smells? Any pain or unusual sensitivity in or around the rest of your vulva? Any possible recent injuries? Is anything unusual with your menstrual cycle, like very painful periods? Is any other part of your body acting like this?

Also, have you ever had any sexual healthcare, like a bimanual exam or STI testing? If so, when was the last time you were seen?
