TIME TO LOOK PERFECT

Girls & boys in their teens often experience huge hormonal changes in the body, which sometimes causes a variety of spots and white dots on genitals. Usually, such lesions do not indicate a serious disease and should not be a reason for excessive agitation.

Genital Acne

Enlarged sebaceous glands

The problem occurs infrequently; however, it is not a threat to health and not sexually transmitted. The sebaceous glands are located all over the body, but because the integument is thick enough on the most parts of it, the sebaceous glands are not visible. On the genitals covered with a thin skin, the sebaceous glands are much more noticeable. Often those are the "white spots" and "pimples" disturbing patients.

If the lesions have a structure of dense white tubercles located on the penis or in the groin, then it could be a fatty cyst. Cysts are formed when sebaceous gland is plugged. Cysts may occur in all men. They are small, unobtrusive and do not cause pain. In case of prolonged rubbing of clothes the cysts may become infected and inflamed. Inflamed cysts should not be ignored. A simple surgical procedure takes only a few minutes. Fatty cyst – is rather a rare formation. Most often it happens during puberty due to fluctuations in the hormonal level and frequent stress typical in this age.

Hair follicles

Hair follicles on genitals can also be considered as pimples. Hair follicles usually look as white slightly convex dots located on the scrotum and the penis near its foot. Later some of the follicles will produce hair, and the others will always remain in the form of white dots. The presence of hair follicles is normal, and does not require any additional treatment.

Genital herpes

Although, there is no efficient cure for genital herpes there are three commonly used antiviral meds prescribed to prevent or shorten outbreaks and minimize genital herpes symptoms: Famciclovir (Famvir), Acyclovir (Zovirax), and Valacyclovir (Valtrex). Severe outbreaks may be treated by taking an antiviral drug every day or by the endovenous (IV) drug acyclovir. Suppressive therapy (for frequent outbreaks) can reduce the number of flare-ups by 70-80%. Many people who take the antiviral drugs daily have no outbreaks at all. Taking daily suppressive therapy both sex partners may also reduce the risk of transmitting the virus to one another.
