ok i have searched and searched and cant seem to get an answer. After a heat cycle how long does it take for the little private area  to go back to normal?? I believe this is the 4th..maybe 5th week since she started her heat cycle and it is still swollen! it will go back down right?? sure hope so!

It should go down somewhat; it most likely won't go all the way down to what it was pre-season.  The hormonal changes in a bitch are the same whether she's bred or not (this is why bitches go through false pregnancies), so it's really several weeks after a season before things start getting back to normal.
