ive seearched these forums for the past few months looking for replies. i want everyone to know that i went to the OBGYN for this reason, AND simply put, she said "all vaginas are different, & just because you see some in text books and online, doesnt mean thats how all look!" she did a pap smear to ease my mind, and normal results. no STDS, no HPV, nothing! she said its just extra tissue & some women have it grow outward like this, or inward. its all cosmetic & you can get it lasered off should you wish. basically...we as women are NOT educated enough on normal anatomy, and except our vaginas to look the same, they dont & thats okay! hope this eases everyones minds!

Finally i found other women with the same issue! i have been so paranoid. i have about 3 of these things. sex is so painful, during and after. i don't know what to do. gyno didn't help. Anyone know exactly what they are?

hi 😃 so I got chafed badly in between my legs from working a double shift.. and I decided to take a mirror and put some neosporin on my inner thighs.. well while I was down there I saw my vag and thought WTH that's not how I remember it! I guess it's been a long time since I saw my vagina! There was a fairly long piece of pink skin hanging out and it doesn't hurt or itch or anything but I was like what is this!? Ever since I've been looking frequently and I see the same type of skin around the hole like flat pink folds? I don't even know the proper terminology.. I've been looking online for weeks and found no pictures that looked like mine until I came across yours! I was thinking after I had a baby maybe they missed a piece of skin when they sewed me up? But now that I see the folds that are similar I don't think that's it. I'm staring to think it's growing? I dno but I was wondering if you ever got a diagnosis? Over the years i've been tested for stds regularly and don't have anything. I did make an appointment with a new gyno but it's not for another month... the anticipation is killing me and I'm really self concious about it... let me know if you have any info please and thank you!

Have you went to the Dr and found out? cause I have also had 3 all natural births 3 miscarriages, after my last birth in 2012 two months later I had a partial hysterectomy they left my right ovary. in 2019 I got locked up for 2 months and I when I got out I ended up having cysts pop on the inside of my legs from not being able to shave for 47 days and then shaving somehow I guess my pores clogged up and the cyst was very painful. 2007 after having my first son his father ended up giving me staff and mono cause he decided to use my razor on his face and then I had used it and didn't know he had. ended up in hospital for 2 weeks 1 month after my son was born. I also have never looked or even touched myself other than cleaning myself cause I was sexually abused from birth til 10 years old. this past year has been the first time that I've even enjoyed or wanted sex. and my partner that I have now is why. I've had more sex this past year then my whole dating life from 16-34 and I'm 36 now. this past August before my birthday I had to have my gallbladder removed but also while they looked at the gallbladder they checked my other organs and they found my ovary is covered in cyst. 2012 I had cervical cancer is why they did a hysterectomy at 26. I am ashamed to say I havent been to dr. I'm scared ive been sick since summer of 2020 off and on and I feel like it's my cancer and I don't have family or anyone to talk to about it.
