Q: Need help!

Hi, my name is Iris, 20 years old and i have size 36 my weight is 63k. 

I never been fat at all but after my puberty my labia minora (vulva) became really fat.

I have this problem for 3 years now. 

I want to know how this can happen.. and how i can get rid of this fat.

maybe by an excercise? or a diet? i tried to eat low fat products and I lost weight but not at my labia minora. Please help.. sometimes i think about surgery but it's too expensive..

Hello Iris

 

Are you saying you don't like how you look down there?  There is no ideal appearance to the vulva.  Everyone looks different.  This is not something you are going to be able to change through diet or exercise.  If you have concerns my best suggestion is to talk with your doctor or gynecologist. If you have no functional issues...I am not sure what would rectify your cosmetic concerns except for surgery. 

 

Thank you for your question.
