Hi all,
I have noticed that during times of stress, I will break out into ulcers "down there". I will also get them during my period. I have had them cultured several times and have had a blood test to rule out STDs such as herpes. Everything has come back negative so my doctor is at a loss as to what these could be. He has suggested an allergic reaction to my period BUT sometimes they do not coincide with bleeding. I have talked to one other ICer who has a story similar to mine, so I am just wondering if this is common...or if she and I are alone with this? Thanks.
