I would like to know more about .. *lowers head and whispers* ... labia surgery

[flappyflop]

Camel-toe, what an ugly word. Even uglier sight .

Anyone with experience with reduction surgery? How was it like? Painful? Easy? Best thing you've done?

Also, when researching, should I look under 'gynaecological' or 'plastic surgery'?

And yes, have name-changed!!

I'm not going to go into the rights and wrongs, just ask why you don't request a referral from your GP? I think it can be quite dangerous to pick a surgeon from the back of Cosmo.

Oh yes, only because I recently relocated and I'm in a country where information isn't so available over the internet, language reasons and etc...

So no such things as GP referral and good ol NHS (yes, they do have their good points!). And I thought I'd check here first for any first-hand experience, before I go one step forward on this.

Surgery to avoid camel-toe? Does that actually happen?. Could you not just avoid wearing tight trousers.

I don't even wear tight trousers. But I've noticed the change perhaps about a year ago. It's obvious when in undies. Maybe having given birth to 2 DCs has something to do with it. Maybe age.

It isn't really about outward appearance. It's loss of confidence. Embarrassment of how it looks to my DH, avoiding any sex because I think it's hideous and therefore, he must think so too.

Before I explore further with normal channels, I thought it might be worth while asking MNers if they have any experience.

but does your dh think it's 'hideous'? Is he avoiding sex? You seem to be assuming a lot about your dh.

You say that it's about loss of confidence, so why are you contemplating surgery rather than figure out what how to get it back?
