One Labia Minora Bigger Than Other
One of the labia minora lips is bigger than the other, it has extra skin and is very dark in colour, and has no feeling. Now the problem is that it sticks out and I'm very uncomfortable with it. It makes me feel akward and abnormal. When I get my period sometime its hard to get the tampon in because it gets in the way and sometimes folds over so I can't get a tampon in and it hurts. Does this happen a lot, and how does it happen? Is there a surgery I can get for this, and should I?
Mines been bigger on the right side, drooping down a bit, wrinkly and a little bit brown/purple to that side while the other one is normal colour and doesnt hang as low...im 18 now but when I was younger I was very self conscious about it and dealt with it by telling myself that once i was older, that surgery would make me beautiful...only later on did i realize that surgery is 1. expensive 2. risky 3. chance of complications and losing sensation in that area....and you know what...as i matured...i realized that it didnt matter that they werent equal, or the same colour.pr that sometimes i have to "adjust" my lips so they dont get caught in my underwear..but that i am beautiful...its our little flaws that set us apart and make us unique and appealing....I know have a wonderful boyfriend who adores my vagina :p and who cant get enough of it...and who thinks im beautiful all over...and you know what...if i ever told him about my inhibitions when i was younger, he'd probably be surprised and think its silly...guys do not care...they love women...period...
I am 23 years old and have had the same problem as all of you for many years. Please listen to the other comments and understand that it is NORMAL and any good guy DOES NOT GIVE A DAMN about it. My boyfriend loves it and I feel it helps increase sensation during sex. Learn to love your body and find someone that will love it equally! Stop freaking out over nothing.
My left side is bigger than my right as well.
I get really self conscious about it.
I can hardly stand to let my boyfriend go down on me because I feel embarresed.
But he always tells me how beautiful and hot my body is to him.
So don't worry. I don't think guys care very much. If they are mature/old enough they know that everyone's bodies are different and normal girls aren't built and surgeried into perfect little porn stars.
I still would like to get surgery though because it does just annoy me sometimes and I don't like the feel of it.

Ladies!
look how many of you are experiencing the exact same thing, you are all perfectly normal, I remember when i was younger (im only 19) and i thought i was abnormal because my labia minora hung outside my labia majora, then i realized that just like our facial features are different people's bodies are all different. Don't worry be comfortable with yourself trust me it is less important than you think it is...
and if ever you are worried you arent normal remember how many other girls are thinking the same thing

I have the same problem and it is perfectly normal. I had my doctor look at it at one point an she said it is normal and nothing to worry about. It doesn't cause any health problems or sexual problems. If you are oncern what your partner thinks of it, from my personal experience they don't care. My bf actually think its cute. And im sure your mother already knows about it since she changed your diapers.
There is corrective sergury but I heard you can lose feeling and sensation after. So you either choose for it to look good or feel good... I never thought of getting surgery even though I use to be self concious about it becuase it never caused me any problems.

Yeh this is so good not knowing i am the only one. my right one is bigger and darker and feels almost like rubber :) Im 16 and i'm sure that mine has been this way since things first started changing down there. Its not abnormal so you dont need to worry. Every is different and the media portray women to have perfect symmetrical bodies, when in fact, we really dont. Boobs can be bigger than the other. One foot is usually slightly bigger than the other. We have freckles or beauty mark. Thats just human. So you guys need to stop worrying because there is no right or wrong when it comes to the human bdoy. Everybody is beautiful.
And plus, if you are still a teenager, the chances are that the other labia will grow and be the same size as the other, or the big one could shrink again. Teenagers are still developing, so dont fret.
Be happy with who you are and remember that real beauy lies in our hearts
