It is likely that the change in hormones are causing you to have acne in that area. It is actually fairly common for a lot of women. The best thing to do is keep that area clean and allow plenty of air flow. Shaving may cause more bumps. You may also want to see a gynecologist or a dermatologist. They may have some medication that can be used to treat and prevent those outbreaks. -
