After having sex I noticed that the left lip of my vagina was swollen, what can I do to make it normal, and why did this happen?

Hi amy_shortie, welcome!

It's really impossible to say exactly what's going on but you might have been bruised during intercourse. If that's the case the swelling should go down in a few days. If it's painful, you might want to sit in a tub of hot water for 15-20 minutes at a time several times a day to see if that reduces the swelling and discomfort. If things don't get better in a day or two it might be a good idea to ask your doctor about your problem. Thanks for posting. Let us know how you're doing, ok?

Take care,

      Jill

Thanks! I'm doing better already just throughout the course of the day! YAY, guess it was just one of those things. Thank you.
