Irregular skin growth around vagina possibly due to masturbation
I am 21 years old and a virgin. I have noticed an irregular growth on labia minora region, more like a bump or a skin tag that causes no irritation or pain. It hasn't grown in size but has changed colour from skin to dark purple. I've had it for a few years and I didn't really think it could be of any problem. But I just wanted to make sure.
Also, I practice masturbation on a regular basis. Sometimes I do it after a long time but at times I happen to do it every day multiple times. Can this cause anything?

Hi,
You may want to look up 'Angiomas' (overgrown blood vessels), to see if the descriptions matches the bump on your labia. Next time you are at the gynecologist for an exam, ask the doctor about the bump.
Good Luck
