Hello doctor,
I am 24 years old and I have noticed that there is a piece of flesh that sticks out slightly from my vagina. I thought it was my clit but I do not know if it is right. It slightly comes out and I do not like the way it looks. Does anyone know what it may be?
Hello,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
It appears to be clitoral hypertrophied hood, which is often a natural development in women and can vary from women to women. However, this needs to be locally examined by your gynecologist to confirm and differentiate from labia minora hypertrophy. This can be surgically corrected for cosmetic purpose.
