      Hey everyone;

      im 24 years old! I want some reassurance. I have a vulva with many moles like 8-9? One of them is very light brown and right on my clitoris. None of them is causing any issue but what i am worried about is their shape looks kinda bit irregular to me! They’re not so round some of them are round but other are not! I just can’t stop crying and can’t force my mom to go and see a doctor with me cuz she thinks moles are normal. I have a lump under labia majoras skin since like year and it’s not growing. Ive scheduled an appointment with urogynae can she see these moles? Or should I find any specific doctor for moles? Is it normal to have this many moles on vulva! I’m terribly scared. I can’t stop myself from checking them every time! It feels like they even grown a little too. One or two of them? I just need some reassurance and what should I do next? Thanks in advance loves

          Go to your scheduled gyn appointment and proceed from there based on the advice you are then given.
