Hi, I am a 15 year old girl and I have this purple oval on the side of my vagina that is open and won?t close. It was close for about a few days as I put bandaids over it as it would?t get sore from my underwear line. It closed up but when I shaved my vagina a few days ago it was fine but last night when I was watching tv it just stared to bleed. It stopped bleeding this morning but is really sore and I don?t know what it is.

Pregnancy is a common cause. Polyps or fibroids (small and large growths) in the uterus can also cause bleeding. Rarely, a thyroid problem, infection of the cervix, or cancer of the uterus can cause abnormal uterine bleeding. In most women, abnormal uterine bleeding is caused by a hormone imbalance.

You should tell your mother about it and alongwith her consult a gynaecologist, so that your sore can be examined and accordingly treated treatment started.
