Thread: buzzing vagina

So.. I recently lost 21 lbs. I JUST started feeling this and some other stuff in my uterus for the past few days. I'm not sure how I feel about it yet. 21 lbs ago I didn't feel ANYTHING. I'm guessing that this [for me at least] is a bit of things going "back to normal"... I hope the flutters mean I'll be seeing aunt flo regularly.

SOOOO, I first had this happen at work yesterday sitting at my desk. Thought it was something maybe under the floor vibrating. Well, it happened when I got home and I panicked a little because I thought "What the heck is that". I thought I was losing my mind and I didn't tell a soul, not even my husband because I was embarassed and thought he'd think I was crazy. I was afraid to type in a phrase into google because of the description, but was SOOOOO happy when I found this thread. I have no clue either and I won't go to the Dr. for it. Like you all have said, it doesn't hurt, or feel good, just irritating. I am 42 and haven't been on the pill for a long time. I'm glad to know that I'm not the only one and that there are others in the same boat. I'm not sure who said it earlier, but I died laughing when I read her say that we should start a group of "vibrating vagina's". CLASSIC

Oh my gosh I have no idea about any of this! I have never had that happen that I know of. I'm confused though, do you mean "buzzing" as in an overstimulated clitoris? I had a friend who had that & she always had pain because she had the "constant clitorial arousal" or whatever it's called. That sounds like it would be a very strange thing!!

I've also had this problem for a few months a slight twitch a couple inches below my belly button, under the skin; pretty much feels like my uterus is twitching, because it definitely wasn't any sort of gas. Always happens while I'm sitting still, it never hurts, kinda feels like a cell phone vibrating, but I never keep my cell phone in my front pocket. I'm 21, never had kids, have ridiculous menstrual cycles, and am not currently on birth control. (I never noticed any twitching until after I stopped taking BC.)

After reading up on it, here's what I've gathered:

Most doctors brush off this symptom, and even the few people who had their doctors further examined with tests, most showed no real results. Some of the posters' twitching disappeared, days, weeks, and months later, sometimes it reappeared, other times, it didn't. Some of the girls were depressed, stressed or mentioned high levels of anxiety at the time. Some mentioned that they don't work out, were overweight, had a few heart problems. The age range was pretty large, between 15-50 years, I would guess. Also, the amount of kids, number of c-sections, and so forth varied. It's safe to say that there is no one particular demographic of woman that this affects.

So if you're having any sort of twitching, ask yourself these questions...

Do I perform a lot of physical activity or am I sedentary most of the day?
Am I stressed/depressed/feeling anxious?
Am I overweight? Am I eating right?
Do I sleep regularly?
Are my menstrual cycles regular?

Before you rush off to your doctor for simple twitching, to be told like the vast majority of posters that updated their doctor told them they had no idea why. Think about this, maybe they are related: I never felt the twitching until after I took an office job, became a bit more stressed than normal, and my eating habits declined. Make some connections to maybe help your doctor, they're only going to ask so many questions, and I get the feeling from most posts that some of the doctors and nurses find this symptom laughable.


Of course, my words are no replacement for a doctor's professional opinion and therefore, I highly recommend you seek your doctor's opinion before making any decisions. But to those of you that have already been to the doctor and have been told they don't know what's wrong with you: get a massage (a nice one from your boy or family member will suffice), quit eating bad food, get more rest, get outside, and don't be a couch potato. Even if it doesn't stop the twitching, what harm could it do to try?
