I too have larger labia minora and am considering the surgery...however, it is pretty expensive and im sure health insurance wont cover it...so im not sure. I am just worried that it is abnormal and that guys will be turned off by it. I also feel that may be one of the reasons I have yet to have sex....since I'm so embarrassed by it. And the fact that im 22...yikes! any suggestions?

I've had this problem as well for many years. I can manually push tuck it back up so that it doesnt rub whilst walking, but it will fall out if i try gymnastics or swimming. The downside to this is that you cant quite put it back in in public (very frowned upon). I'm saving up for the surgery.. and waiting for the right time for the surgery. My boyfriends have never had any trouble with it. It took me a long time before i could even deal with this. So i say surgery is the go if it really is causing a miserable life.

I hope you think about this a long time and decide not to do the surgery. "Doc it hurts when I do this" "Then don't do that"

WOW this is gonna sound absurd to some but I thought I was abnormal in some way.
but hearing your girls stories it helps me not be so critical of my body.
Maybe I should check with a Gyno although I've never had sex and I don't have infection probs or anything wrong.


There is nothing wrong w/ you, labia menor are like Snow flakes no two are alike,but all beautiful.

hey! im also 17 and i have labial hypertrophy aswell. i was always like embarrased by it and it made me feel uncomfortable, like if i went comando it could get in the way when i walked or when i ride a bike and stuff it just hurts. im going to get mine cyrgicully removed. but its not abnormal, its actually very common, more than u think! but if it makes u feel uncomfortable and u dont really like it, get it removed! Smile its ur choice.

firstly thank you so much for posting this and for the great response. i hvae had this for what must be two or three years and i was scared to death that it could be something serious. i'm too afraid to tell my parents but maybe once i move out or am 19 i'll see my doctor about it.

people need to be more open minded and not so self concious...i dont understand y are u afraid to tell ur parents about this? if u have someone really close to u that cares about u...its better to let them kno its botherin u...better then keepin it inside and u always could get advice...
