For as long as I can remember, probably years, I have had these growths in my vagina. I have had sex once which was protected. They have also been there before I did anything with anyone. I am now starting to worry about them as I have been searching on google. Can anyone help with this? My GP is only allowing emergencies so I thought I would show a photo of it here to see if it looks familar... You can click the image for a closer look. image

    Hi maddie,

    The fine finger-like projections on either side are vestibular papillomas. You also have some Fordyce spots in the background. Google for more info (suggest Dermnet NZ).

    Nothing to worry about and no treatment necessary for either.

    Rgds,

    Adhari

      Thank you so much. That has eased my worries. Is the larger growths more inside also VP? @adhari83393

      Hi maddie,

      Difficult to be certain on a 2-d image but I think you're referring to normal vaginal mucosal folds!
