Avatar f tn s abnormal, my left labia minora is longer than my right and there is like a fold of skin between the upper part of the left labia minora and the left labia majora , this fold of skin extends upward between the clitoris (and the skin that covers it) and left labia majora and it appears in the middle between the two labia majora when i stand, although the right half of my vulva looks normal and nice, this is really FREAKING me out, i'm not worried about the fact that one of my inner lips is l
Avatar f tn Had 2 dosages of antibiotics early this month. Genital started itching so I assumed it's yeast infection. 2 weeks ago, I saw some "flakes" on my vulva and realised that there's 2 distinct patches on my outer vulva. The skin of the patches looks wrinkled and lighter than the other area. There's no additional growth but I sort of had a cut on my vulva late last mth while I was washing up.
Avatar f tn clitoris, labia, etc. The entrance to the vagina is visible and should be visible.
Avatar f tn I ignored it, until I noticed that I also had a dull ache in my vagina that lasted for a few days, similar to the feeling the day after having sex. I then noticed that in between where my labia minora and labia majora meet, there was a redness, and it was almost raw-looking. It was the same length and on both sides of my vulva. It almost looked as if someone had taken their nails and scratched me on either side. I never had any blisters, and these (sores? scratches?
Avatar f tn that outer vulva shape is now accompanied by the labia that look sort of like lettuce popping out of a hamburger bun. Check out Betty Dodson. dodsonandross I think is the name of her website.
Avatar f tn I have notice a few raised veins on the inside of my labia minora. No other symptoms recently, but during my daily self exam a few weeks back, I began to see a dark line on one side of the inner surface of my vulva just above the vagina. It is not tender, and does not burn or itch, but since yesterday, it has become a raised purple vein.
Avatar f tn I've been exercising a lot recently and I noticed a small bump on my labia majora more on the outer part. It took about a week to heal but now I have another bump still on the labia majora but its under the skin near the labia minora. I'm a virgin, but the only sexual thing I've done with someone is just manual stimulation and that was 6 months ago. Could these bumps be due to the excessive sweating and the friction of exercising? Thanks.
Avatar n tn It sounds pretty normal. For one thing, labia don't look alike. Also, I think they often have an overhang like you're describing. Have you read anything by Betty Dodson about labia? Her "original vulva sketches" web page is illustrated with 14 sketches of normal labia, and they all look really different.
Avatar n tn ve had random, intermittent stinging feelings that are very mild but come and go around my vulva, mainly in the labia and near ,but not on , the opening of the vagina. I've also had these random chill sensations in my buttocks but they only lasted a day. I have not noticed any sores, blisters, lesions, etc and I'm not burning, itching, or in any sort of pain.
Avatar f tn I had a punch biopsy on my vulva due to itchiness, burning and white coloring. The result came back at Follicular Keratosis. Anyone has any insight on this condition? Was only told it was benign. But, would that cause burning, itching, tearing skin of the labia and white skin? Thanks.
554321 tn?1215470569 ok for the last month I have been experiencing swelling in my left labia minora. It wasnt a big deal before but now is getting bigger and it feels bruised. I also noticed it was dry too. I am 9 months pregnant and I'm not sure it is related to pregnancy or not. I have no other symtoms, no sores, no burning, or iching. please help me in finding an answer!
Avatar m tn I have always found large labia minora to be more attractive, especially if you shave the vulva and lips. The other reasons is during sex. Large lips provide a unique sensation for thr man thrusting in and out.
Avatar m tn ok! so my questions is, if guys like or hate the long inner labia minora? do they get turned off if the 2 labia minoras are not even?
Avatar f tn ve tried sudocrem to heal it but all that seems to happen is it gets clogged in my hairs and in the creases of my legs/vulva. My vulva lips have started to look very wrinkly and almost shrunken. I know it's probably the silliest thing in the world but I'm super embarrassed about going to the doctor about it. I'm just so so depressed and sore to the point where it hurts to walk.
Avatar f tn This started when I was 17. I remember riding the bus home one day when I was overcome with this intense itch on my left side labia. I rushed home to scratch and then it immediately become swollen. Five years later it is still incredibly itchy on the left side only and appears a bit red and swollen. I brought it up to a gyn last year while getting a pap but he brushed it off as hormones and I wasn't assertive enough to push the issue and explain it more.
Avatar n tn If left untreated, lichen sclerosus can cause progressive scarring. This can cause the labia minora (the inner lips of the vulva) to disappear completely, the opening to the vagina to narrow, and scar tissue to cover the clitoris. Lichen sclerosus does not affect other mucous membranes and only 1 in 10 people have other areas of their skin develop lichen sclerosus. Patients who have untreated disease have a slightly increased risk of a skin cancer of the involved areas.
Avatar f tn It took about 2 weeks to heal, but ever since then my vulva, particularly the left labia, has not been right. I get a tingling sensation down there all the time. The left labia feels irritated, and it sometimes feels like there's a knot/lump or something deep inside, sort of in the crease between my vulva and inner thigh. Could it be a swollen lymph node? I also feel a piercing, sharp, shooting pain in addition to dull aches.
Avatar f tn Hi I've had red itchy bumps on labia majora for a couple months now. I developed an itchy rash in the crease between thigh and vulva and used anti fungal cream. That part has seemed to clear up for the most part but the red itchy bumps on my labia majora are still there. They do not hurt, and they have not blistered they just itch on and off.
Avatar f tn Hi I am a 23 year old female and I have been experiencing a constant itch for the last six weeks mostly on my labia and clitoris. Even if I scratch it, it does not relieve the discomfort whatsoever. The itching never goes away even when I apply creams. I have tried Aloe Vera, multiple types of thrush creams, Sorbolene, Paw Paw cream, DermAid - nothing works. I have also tried baths with Epsom salts and Apple vinegar - no change.
Avatar f tn So, I just googled to find information on other women with vaginas like mine, or I should say vulvas, because I have no inner labia and you cannot find vaginas like this anywhere! I felt VERY deformed because of this for so long, I'm 22 now, but feel better after finding this site. However, my biggest concern is the size of my vulva and mons pubis. I'm overweight but my labia majora are very thick and my mons pubis is like a part of my body all it's own.
Avatar f tn had a biopsy, which came back negative. The mid line between my labia minora and labia majora have been splitting and whenever it joins and heals, the skin gets thicker and white in color. Had a vulva colposcopy with vinegar and the skin was very white. The doctor decided to do biopsy of the whitish skin and the normal color skin. I just got a phone call today that the result of my biopsy was Follicular Keratosis, a benign skin condition.
Avatar f tn Does sexual penetration of the vagina require the penis to go into the vaginal opening (or that hole where fingers can reach in)? If a guy just rub his erect penis on your labia or clitoris is it considered penetration?
Avatar n tn I was having some fingering and foreplay and I might have gotten some of his semen on my clitoris or labia minora(inner labia). Is this a risk for getting HIV assuming he has it? If so, high or low?
Avatar m tn I hear and read that more and more women worldwide are consulting plastic surgeons for labia minora reduction operations because they think that they have abnormally large labia. Of course the plastic surgeons are happy to comply because they make more and more money from what is basically unnecessary proccedures. I consider most labia operations to be modern female genital mutilation.
Avatar f tn I have been experienced a mild come and go itch in my vulva for a couple weeks, A few days ago i got a bump in my labia majora it had hairs in it. When I squeezed it and pocked it with a needle clear fluid and blood came out. The bump was gone but withing a few hours the top layer of skin came off and left a open reddish peeling sore. I am wondering if anyone knows what this could be. If its herpes why would all my test come back negative?
1718217 tn?1309841424 Hi, I have really bad itching on my vulva beside my labia. I have been keeping the area clean and dry, there is no discharge, no smell but I scratched so bad and caused a bad rash that actually bled. Is there a home remedy for this itching or should I go to my Gynocologist for an exam?
