Stuttering out of no where?

Stuttering out of no where? TL:DR: i started stuttering out of no where, specifically on words that sound like do/you. I noticed about a week ago i started getting this random stutter, and it only happens with the Do/U sound. So words like Do, Two, You. If i say a sentence like “do you wanna go out to eat” I’ll stutter on the do and than i just wont say it cuz i know I’ll start stuttering even more. So i stop and it ends up being an awkward pause until i find a better word. And this only happens sometimes but always with those sounds. I’m 21 year old and never had a stuttering problem or of one i could catch on. anyway to help? Anyone else’s got this issue? Or any idea of why a random stuttering issue could start out of no where? Thanks in advance.
