A long read ahead... probably covering issues that will be very familiar to yourself.

I was about 12, and was sharing a bath with my younger cousin. (Not in a strange inbred way, we just needed to be ready quickly and therefore both hopped in together). I caught a glimpse of her vagina, no labia.. all neat and tidy... and then looked down at mine.... dangly, hanging out.... UGLY.

It was then that it all started. As i was growing up, i used to wonder why my vagina was so long, why i had dangly creases hanging out. I used to google it all of the time, and got very upset about it. I realised what i had was a 'large labia', and that there was a procedure for it. A labiaplasty...

At 16 years old, my friends had all started to have sex, and we'd have sleepovers talking about sexual encounters, except i never joined in. How on earth could i have sex i thought? who is going to want to have sex with me when i have a vagina as ugly as mine!!! I finally plucked up and spoke to my mum about it...

We arranged a doctors appointment, and my doctor agreed to refer me to a hospital gynocolegist. When the day came around, my mum took me to the hospital and we sat patiently in the waiting room. After the doctor called my name, he asked me to undress from the bottom downwards, and to lie on the bed. He looked at my labia, and then said i was perfectly normal, and a labiaplasty was not needed.

I left the hospital crying, shouting at my mum that he wouldn't do anything for me, blaming her, and feeling very upset. How does he know what is normal and what isnt i said? he doesnt have to live with this horrible ugly piece of skin every single day!!!!

A few months had passed, and i got to terms with the fact that the NHS were not willing to allow me to have the operation. I finally met a guy who i thought i loved enough to have sex with. Although sex didn't cause me any pain, i found the whole thing embarrassing. Foreplay was especially embarrassing, cringing at him fumbling around my extra skin to find my clitoris. The guy never said anything, but i knew my vagina wasn't right...

My current boyfriend has too never said anything, but sex has started to hurt. I am getting incredibly sore after sex at times, and i can even feel the labia chaffing against my underwear when i am walking. Wearing a bikini is a definite no no, i am one of those people who wear their shorts all day long...

I am never ever naked, i can't bare the thought of standing naked in front of the mirror, let alone in front of my boyfriend. There is no way i would ever let him perform oral sex on me, and if i have a bath infront of him, i keep my legs closed and make him leave the room until i am dressed again.

To some people on the outside world, they must think we are mad, and probably pathetic. For those of you reading this, i presume most of you too feel like you have an enlarged labia. Why weren't we born with pretty, neat and pain free ones hey!? i feel you girls...

4 years have passed since i went to the NHS, and as of now i am 20 years old. I have coped with my large labia for years, and i have decided enough is enough. I have finally booked my surgery for a few weeks time, and plan on having the wedge technique with a clitoral hood reduction.

I have posted some photos of my labia now, and will keep editing this post once the procedure has been performed. If you have any advice, any questions, or want to speak to someone about it, please don't hesitate to message me! I am feeling very nervous, but also excited, and can't wait to have a pain free pretty vagina that i have to hide!!!

Good luck with surgery! I just had mine done. My story sounds just like yours, only I also struggled with loose vaginal walls. I had a vaginoplasty along with labiaplasty and hood reduction. Will post my story soon, but just know it's already so worth it!

Well done!! The worst is over and I hope you have a smooth recovery. I have sent an enquiry for a consultation with Dr Hagen Schumacher mid April in Cambridge. Did you have the same doctor?

My labiasty pictures so far

The first three pictures are my labia just before surgery, taken from three diffeeent angles so you can see them protruding.

The next few pictures are a picture every single day up until day 5. You will see how much it dramatically changes. It’s crazy. I’m Day 5 today and in the worst pain so far because I can feel the stitches pulling the skin tighter.

I am taking co-codamol which is making nauseous and is making me dizzy and tired but really helps the pain...

I have got thrush as you will see from the last photo. This is because I have been using antibiotic ointment to prevent infection which has messed with the PH of my vagina and is now causing me some discharge. I got thrush quite a lot before the surgery so I am not alarmed by this.

Surprisingly I have had no blood at all!!!!!!


Any questions just ask xx
