Advice - diagnosed with VIN3

Hi

I've just been diagnosed with VIN3 following a GP visit and a biopsy 3 weeks ago to what I first thought were warts. Should I be worried, just after a little reassurance I guess

    Hi! I have been diagnosed with VIN and been having biopsies and surguries for that.. Mine is HPV related. What have you done so far? I saw another post of yours with a white lession.

    Ive just been told my VIN3 has returned after having surgery to remove the last lot in 2019. Best advice i can give is to check your vulval area regularly and report any changes. Have you been advised what the next step of your treatment will be? It can take years for VIN3 to develop into full blown vulval cancer so as long as you stay aware of your body and any changes then you should be able to have it managed as best as is suited.
