Lump on Labia Minora
I am 27yrs old,non smoker virgin. I found a lump near my clit on the labia minora on the left side.I thought it would go away but it hasn't until now.Sometimes it feels smaller, and sometimes the same size.It is not painfull and feels really close to the skin. Please help, what could it be? I studied somewhere that lumps could be Vulvar cancer. I m scared

Vulvar cancer is not common. Try not to worry about that. AND, it's super slow growing. Do you see your ob/gyn on an annual basis? Or have a physical yearly? When is the next appointment? During that exam, I'd bring this up and have a doctor give you an opinion. I wouldn't really worry though and think it can wait until that appointment as long as it is in the next six months. good luck

Hey. Thank you for the reply. We don't have yearly check-ups here. We just make an appointment when we need to see the doctor.
I checked it, but my skin color hasn't changed, the lump is soft and not painful. I don't know if to go to the gynaecologist right away or to wait for some more time
