How to deal with vaginal hypertrophy

Women's unique organs are very fragile, especially the private parts, which need to be carefully protected. Many women do not know what their private parts look like, and do not know whether their genitals are normal. Many medical institutions only check women for diseases and do not pay much attention to underdevelopment. Some women find that their genitals are enlarged. What can they do to make their genitals normal?

1. What causes vaginal hypertrophy?

In fact, what women call vaginal hypertrophy refers to hypertrophy of the labia. Generally speaking, vaginal hypertrophy can be congenital or acquired. The congenital cause is almost always due to changes in the sexual organs during embryonic growth and development, which generally does not cause harm to women's health.

There are many causes of acquired vaginal enlargement, mainly due to long-term chronic stimulation or irritation and friction. For example, when women suffer from vulvitis but fail to receive effective treatment, their vagina will be subjected to long-term external stimulation and friction, causing the vagina to slowly change. In addition, when women suffer from vaginal inflammation, inflammatory secretions will also irritate the vagina, causing the skin and mucous membrane of the labia to proliferate and slowly become enlarged.

2. Will vaginal hypertrophy cause harm to women's health?

First of all, vaginal hypertrophy will cause unsightly appearance of female labia, which will cause huge psychological barriers to female patients. Labia will bring many inconveniences to patients in their lives. Women are shy by nature, and they are often ashamed to seek treatment when vaginal hypertrophy occurs. If the vaginal hypertrophy is caused by vaginitis, not only will the symptoms not be effectively relieved, but the inflammation problem in particular will not be effectively treated, which will cause certain damage to women's health. It is recommended to go to a regular hospital for further examination and treatment in time.

3. Surgical treatment

According to relevant experts, when enlarged labia minora causes a certain burden on life and psychology, it can be corrected through labiaplasty, and surgery is also the only way to treat enlarged labia minora.

Labia minora reduction surgery should be performed away from menstruation and pregnancy. Generally, a longitudinal fusiform excision is performed on the outer side of the labia minora. Before the operation, it is necessary to pay attention to cleaning the vulva. The surgery is performed in the lithotomy position and local infiltration anesthesia is used. Generally, a longitudinal fusiform incision about 2.5 cm long is made on the outer side of the labia minora. After removing the skin and pushing the soft tissue inward, strict hemostasis is performed and the incision is sutured with fine silk thread.

If the labia minora is significantly enlarged, the enlarged part will be removed to form a new standard labia minora. After the operation, the newly formed labia minora will regain natural color, be of moderate size, and have a beautiful appearance. There will be no local scars and no postoperative sequelae. The operation is performed under local anesthesia, takes a short time, and you can go home immediately after the operation. The stitches will be removed after one week.
