Help!! Vaginal labia lump!

7 replies

Poppy0108 · 24/04/2020 19:19

Has anyone had a lump in the labia minora area of their vagina??? I've had this lump around 6 weeks! It's not sore and is moveable! I've been to the doctors which was incredibly undignifying! Even after 3 children!! Hes referring me to a gyno for an app in the next 2 weeks. He 'doesnt think' it's anything to worry about, he said it's definitely not a cyst. All I can think of it cancer!!!!!!! I'm only 30 and petrified! Please tell me someone has experienced the same!

Hi OP,

Sorry to hear you've had such a worrying time of it. We're just bumping this thread for you. Hopefully someone who's been here before and come out the other side will be along soon to offer advice.

I've had several for years, I too went to see a gynaecologist who told me they are very common, especially as the lumps are very mobile. His advice was to leave the cysts alone unless they burst as they are difficult to heal. I'm sure you will be fine.

Definitely not a bartholin cyst? Had one 2.5 years ago, it was huge, so incredibly painful, managed to sort it myself but I had to keep sitting my delicates in epsom salts (I think). I know it's gross but there's some videos on YouTube... I'm prone to cysts from blocked hair follicles but this was totally different.

I’ve got a permanent small lump , feels like a lump of gristle IYSWIM . A few years ago it swelled up and obviously had become infected somehow , it produced a head and oozed . I had to have 4 different types of AB to clear it up , eventually it did on Rifampin but I was left with the same residual lump that I’ve always had . I’ve never been tempted to ask for it to be removed as 99% of the time it doesn’t affect me .

I have a few skin tags around my groin, but apparently this lump is a skin tag 2. Xx
