Really, that’s so reassuring! Thank you for sharing that!
I’ve calmed down a lot since I found it, but it’s still on my mind a lot.
Yours sounds just like mine!
It feels soft and harmless to touch, but to look at, it’s like “waaah that isn’t supposed to be there!”
I’m so confused!!!

Re: Vaginal lump please help
I don’t know whether to go to a GP or a STI clinic about this! It is one big lump, surrounded by lots of tiny, skin-tag like things.
I’m worried the big lump might be a tumour or a cyst, and I’m worried the little ones could be HPV/warts. (Although I’ve been with the same man for 12 years!)
I can’t figure out how they’d even see the big one to diagnose it! A speculum would flatten it, and a finger cannot feel it because it is too soft.
Re: Vaginal lump please help
I went to an sti clinic on the weekend as I’ve had burning down there for a while and the gp is not taking me seriously anymore, he had a good look around and said it all looks normal. I didn’t mention the lump but he looked down there using a speculum and he didn’t mention it. I don’t think you have anything to worry about hun, mine is long ish, but is horizontal, attached to vaginal wall if that makes sense?
Re: Vaginal lump please help
Thanks Lady! Mine is so soft and spongey that I think a speculum would flatten it and miss it!
I’m thinking of going to an STI clinic....
So did you get any tests or diagnosis at your appointment? We’re you seen by a nurse or a doctor at the STI clinic?
If yours is horizontal, I wonder if it might have just been a ridge.
Mine runs up the side of the anterior wall, but it’s right low down, near the opening. It’s almost like a fold of skin that dangles down too low and is puffy like a kidney bean....but I can stretch it out til it pretty much disappears! It’s so weird, and I cannot find anything remotely similar online!
Re: Vaginal lump please help
I was seen by a doc and there was a female in their too, prior to this I showed the lump to my gp and she said it’s normal. But of course that wasn’t enough for me! Regarding the burning they couldn’t see a reason for it said could be dryness or mild inflammation but nothing visibly different
Re: Vaginal lump please help
So, would you recommend a GP or STI clinic for this? I’m so confused 😢
Re: Vaginal lump please help
I would go to a sexual health clinic they are much more specialised with those bits
Re: Vaginal lump please help
Thank you! I just want to know it’s not a tumour! Classic HA sufferer!

An sti clinic will be far better as they see lady bits day in day out. I think this is either left over hymen or from having kids! When I was fixated of vulva cancer I found another site which has a section dedicated to it, lots of people post pics of their privates, all of them never had kids and it all looks a lot neater and tidier than mine. My gp said I looked normal x
