I'm a girl of age of eighteen. I get vaginal thrush sometimes, and it spreads from my vagina to my labia minora. It makes it swells, itch and make the skin irritating. Is it possible to get rid the fungus, by an operation? I am considering to take a labia minora plastic surgery with clitoris hood reduction. Reason for this is because I have the "butterfly-type-of-[RS bleep]". Which means my inner lips are so big and it's like they're hanging and are so visible and also my clithood is big.

Answer: Surgery not advised Young women rarely have problems with genital anatomy that require surgical repair. The yeast infections should be evaluated by a GYN specialist, but are unlikely related to normal labial folds and features.

Answer: You are actually quite normal. I appreciate your concern over your appearance but you should be made aware--right at the outset--that your labia are entirely normal. You have a normal protrusion of the inner lips beyond the outer lips; about 1/3 of all women on Earth have this same configuration. I imagine that you will pursue a 'bobbing' of your natural feminine appearance if you must. But be aware of potential consequences such as poor wound healing, irregular shape/borders and virtually zero reduction of future thrush occurrences.Speaking of thrush (monilia), see a gyn to try to identify things you may be doing to inflame your vagina: Antibiotics? Too much douching? Trimming down one's labia merely because they are "there" is becoming a rather regrettable new trend.Do your research and make good choices. Good luck!
