The first shape of labia minor is good for woman, means good luck for husband's career.So do not cut all !!!

caitie said...

maqmur...
It hurts a woman when she has intercourse with labia like that. It does not mean good luck for a mans career. sorry to disappoint you. but seriously, think about this.
IF these women are married,( which some of them might NOT be,)they're husbands probably paid for the surgery and don't you think if they were having career troubles they would have been financially able to fix their wives labia?? no. and if they were so worried about some stupid little tale then they obviously wouldn't have fixed the problem area BUT since it isn't true I'm sure these men would rather their women be comfortable and free of pain than worrying about some little superstition.
here in THIS country men don't treat their wives as OBJECTS for good luck and fortune and they definitely dont believe their wife's LABIA will bring them a good career. The MAN makes HIMSELF a good career. NOT his wife's vagina.
thanks.

I don't think she truly meant that 'caitie'.

And what the hell are you implying when you say 'THIS country men don't treat their wives as OBJECTS.' When did they ever say anything about treating wives like objects.

I SERIOUSLY doubt that 'maqmur' meant what they said to be taken literally, it was a light hearted joke.

So chill.

I think everyone needs to relax a little. It's surgery, things are not perfect, typically why people have surgery, to try and create something 'perfect.' just relax and browse through the photos and stop being and taking things so literal.. that is not directed at caitie more so the 'anonymous' person who decided to comment on a literal statement. in, which i would like to add, caitie has a point that women are not men's objects, and she was simply correcting maqmurs opinion to which he/she implyed that.

I just think it's sad that women feel the need to cut up their vagina's to fit in with the porn stars. Men shouldn't care, either. Men don't like feeling their penis is too small and women don't like feeling their vagina isn't pre-pubescent enough.

Anonymous said...

You don't get it. It is obvious that most, if not all, of these pictures are probably from porn stars. Not your Jenna Jameson's, but the ones that will do anything for a buck. Ex: baseball bats, oversized sex toys, etc. They have probably quit and decided it was all a mistake and would like to look like they did before.

well Im 16 and i already know it sucks to have your vag look like that when your friends have normal ones. Its embarrasing.and It sure isnt cheap to fix it either. Some women can afford to fix it, some cant. when you cant afford to fix it and your too embarrassed to have sex because of it, that sucks.
women have enough shit to deal with, this shouldnt be one of the things stressing them out. its sucks

My labia look a lot like the "before" photos. I would never get them surgically altered! I have NEVER had a partner who had a problem with it. If someone doesn't like the shape of my genitals, I don't want to be with them anyway!

To the 16-year-old: as someone who has sex with women and men, I can tell you that protruding inner labia are completely normal. Google for Betty Dodson's "Sex for One Genital Art"; she has drawn hundreds of genital portraits: you will see that long labia are quite common. Dr Dodson's book, "Sex for One" is amazing and empowering; you should pick it up.

I AGREE!, with some of the posts

I dont like how my vagina looks, but it isn't that bad, but still having sex with someone new is totally embarssing
if it makes you feel more confident do it.

Anonymous said...

I just had it done and I'm so happy and relieved. I was so embarrased to have sex or even get a checkup once a year at the OBGYN. I know what you are going through "Anonymous 16". This procedure is becoming less tabu and since many more women are having it done, it is becoming cheaper.

I agree with both sides here. Everyone should learn to be happy with themselves & appreciate their bodies. However it's not just about the apearance of of the vagina, its comfort during intercourse & everyday activities. My labia are not as large as the pic & I consider it "normal/natural", however I do feel some discomfort while doing anything active such as running & aerobic exercise. I do feel sorry for women with large labia, not because of the appearance but for the discomfort & the feeling of wanting to adjust and tuck your bits.

Claire Megan said...

Hi my name is Claire and im 21. I have recently undergone a labiaplasty and straight away felt instant releif and my self confidence is through the roof. Since I was 16 I have suffered with extrememly protuding inner labia. This held me back not only in sexual activities but everyday ones too. I could not wear certain underwear as it constantly rubbed making me sore. This meant I have been wearing Bridget Jones pants for as long as I can remember. I would not like wearing bikinis due to the visible bulge and fear of falling out. I almost felt I was ugly head to toe, just because of this small part of my body. In sexual intercourse I would not let my partner see or often touch that area. It also hurt an awful lot most of the time. My self confidence also affected my relationships as it was so embarrassing trying to explain to my boyfriend why I would let him do things.
I can understand people saying that the 'designer vagina' operation as they call it, isextreme vainty, they obviously have lovely genital areas.
For those considering the operation....do it. You will not regret it, and as silly as it sounds it will change your life. It has mine.
Im going on my first date in a year tommorrow and Im going on holiday next week. I have bought a tight fitted white bikini....bring it on!

Anonymous said...

To anyone out there. i really want this procedure done. not for vanity but for myself. to actually be happy with myself. it is unbelieveable how muc of an impact having labia like that has on you. i love sex but cant stand for a guy to really touch me and it has to be completely dark. i can hardly even look at myself i am so disgusting. i feel like men completely judge you like the painter on the uk channel 4 programme the perfect vagina. i want one day to have sex with the lights on and to be able to let myself go completely. anyone who thinks this procedure is stupid should not slag anyone else off but be grateful that they either have a nice vagina or have the confidence to love themselves no matter what they look like.

for anyone who is a runner, this is a surgery that makes sense. also, during foreplay, it's the first thing that the man feels, and that gets attention, which is (a) embarrassing to your partner to say, no, honey, wrong little bit of mystery lady flesh (b) typically already sensitive due to daily activities and (c) an almost instant turn off for me, the woman. I'm fascinated that so many people have opinions on this subject. Yes - including myself

CH said...

Claire Megan, i feel exactly the same. I had the surgery two weeks ago. but not as much for cosmetic reasons, obviously i was embarassed and uncomfortable. My labia were 5 and a half cm, and acording to survys only 1% of woman have them over 3 and a half cm. I am a dancer and i like a lot of sports but i have not been able to perform my best because of my HUGE labia. As for the operation... it was all fine although there was a lot of swelling and bruises but it is completly worth it. for anyone concidering having this done, it is worth it, but don't take the dicision lightly, this is a part of your body, and if a guy doesn't like it or calls you names because of it then i don't think he is worth it, do you? I also recommend a week of bed rest... so get some-one else running after you for a change!!

I HAVE JUST BEEN DOING A LITTLE RESEARCH ON IT AND I WANT TO KNOW WHERE DO I MAKE AN APPOINTMENT TO GET IT DONE!

Sarah said...

I am 24 yrs old no kids but have a large labia. I am always feeling the need to adjust myself whenever I wear a thong. It is very uncomfortable but sometimes I want to wear tight pants or a tight skirt and I don't want lines showing but it is difficult to wear a thong. I am seriously considering this surgery now because I would love to be comfortable in any kind of underwear and not worry about excusing myself to the ladies room every 20 minutes to fix the discomfort!

Anonymous said...

im 16 & very conscious of my labia and it is very uncomfortable i just wish i could cut it off i panic wen i get close to any boy becos i think they are goin to want to have sex and im just totally paranoid and embarrassed. everytime i have had sex with boys i have been drunk never sober. i forget when im drunk and all times have been in random dark places. this is NOT a vanity thing it is an insecurity or MANY woman people who judge and say its ridiculous need to try having these feelings so many women have and then see what they're saying.

does anyone know the average price by the way?

Kayleigh said...

I MUST HAVE THE LARGEST, UGLIEST, AND MOST PAINFUL LABIA KNOWN TO (WO)MAN!!

Over the course of several years I've spent countless hours looking at photos of vaginas, and mine is by far the most unsightly. IT LOOKS LIKE ROTTING ROAD KILL!!

I've always been self conscious about my vagina, so much so, that just like a previous poster said, I've only ever had sex when completely obliterated drunk, not only because I lose my inhibitions but also because I lose sensation and it doesn't hurt so much when my labia get caught. Another benefit is that I don't remember if I get complaints or not. But i wish it didn't have to be this way.

I can't wear skimpy undies because my labia are too large, and any tight pants are out, as well as swimwear. I haven't been on a beach or in a public or communal pool since my early teens. I can't ride a bike because it hurts my labia too much, and shaving is a nightmare.

I would love to have the surgery not only for aesthetic reasons but practical ones too. I want to be able to ride a bike, wear tight undies and pants, and have sex knowing that I won't have to endure at least minor discomfort. But it's out of my league financially, and probably always will be. ANY MAN WANNA PAY FOR ME LOL?!

I have a recurrent bartholin gland cyst on the same side I have a really outrageously long labia. I am wondering if somehow problems with the one might have contributed to cyst formation by blocking the gland outlet? Between the two it is quite painful. Have an appointment with a gynecologist this week and plan to ask what can be done for both problems. Hope to this get this situation resolved!

Ana said...

aww honey, hope everything works and you'll feel no pain. any pics from you is appreciated.

Daphne said...

Well I say anyone who wants to do this for their own self, to avoid friction or general problems, or even boost confidence and remove an insecurity they should do it.
the only reason i see not to is because someone else isnt happy and wants to manipulate or just bluntly force you to do it.

Get it done if u are uncomfortable,embarrassed,in pain....any of those problem ...its a great opportunity to feel better about urself and plus it isnt painful and recovery is easy.

Anonymous said...

My comment is to both of the 16 year old girls. I know exactly how u feel I have felt the exact same way and I know its an awful feeling espcially when your girlfriends dont have the problem...or when u wear a swim suit i bet u have to buy a certain one bc you are afraid of them way your vag looks in it.,,,tell ur mom u want to see a gyno and tell the doctor how u feel (i know thats hard to do) It is so worth it im 18 and i just got it done and could not be happier...it will make you feel better i promise. i know how embarrassing this can be...and it isnt that expensive especially bc a lot of insurances cover most of it believe it or not.

Jenny said...

WOW. I never knew this was considered an issue... the only person I ever asked about it was my midwife after either my third or fourth child was born and she was down there already- and she just said it was normal. I've never compared my vag to other women and my husband has never had a problem. Of course... now I wonder...

Anonymous said...

How much does this surgery usually cost? I am 22 I have only ever had 1 sexual partner who I am with and until I watched embarassing illnesses I didnt realise thatmy labia were too big. I find it really uncomfortable when I wear tight underwear and I would really contemplate getting this done but I am curious about the scarring and how much it costs?

Stacy said...

I just had a labiaplasty done last week. I was embarrassed of my labia and it always seemed to get in the way. Talk to your GYN doctor and tell him/her its painful. Most insurances will cover the cost and I am actually making payments for mine. I would not be able to afford it otherwise. I most sincerly understand everyones opinions and I hope what I have said helps someone :) I am happy with the results!!

hahahaha!!! i met a young girl that had a problem like this, she would always be made fun of! roast beef and all kinds of creative demeaning things. that is really great it means good luck for husband's career i can't wait to tell her that one! hahahaha. really though im happy i found this surgery i will suggest it to her.

Anonymous said...

I just had the Labiaplasty done exactly 4 weeks ago today. I am estatic with the results.
I had had the labia problem since i was 10 years old. It just came on naturally. I always thought i was weird and different because of it and became very shy about myself. It bothered me in every day activities like walking, sitting down, the clothes i wore. It was really embarrassing because its not like you can just adjust yourself in public. Sex was also very uncomfortable and not even enjoyable.

I saw my doctor's before and after photos of the ones he had done and was very pleased.
I decided to have the surgery. My doctor told me in my consultation that because my labia was quite large and was getting the surgery done for medical reasons, i'd be able to claim some funds back.
Throughout the whole process of the surgery, they were absolutely wonderful to me. I did my research before hand and understood that the usual time for a Labiaplasty was about an hour. My doctor took about 2 hours. He took his time and perfected it. And even though he was male, i felt 100% comfortable. A female was always present and a nurse was present during the surgery. All the staff were wonderful all the time.
My healing time was quick. I was up and back at work within 3 days.

If anyone is thinking of having this done, i highly recommend Dr. Blackstock of Sydney. His website is www.enhanceclinic.com.au
Once you have it done you'll be so glad you did it!
I still cannot get over how happy i am since this surgery. I'm soo much more confident (even though no one see's it) and everything just seems so much easier now.
I say definately do it. =]

Why is there an argument in terms of appearance? Don't you realize that by having excess labia is painful, not to mention, it can be uncomfortable in certain clothing. It's a personal matter and certainly a personal decision. Respect that there are many reason why a women feel the need to make these femine changes. Don't assume that it's a decision based on images of porn stars, or based on a husbands income. It's not a conversation of debate, nor is it a matter of others opinions. Each case is individual, and personal.

I have had this issue since I was 13, and refuse to have an sexual contact because of it, which has shortened alot of relationships and made it hard for me to be myself around my partners. I am 18 years old now, and all I want to do is get this done, how ever I have no idea how much it will cost! I'm sure I can afford it soon enough, and the sooner the better. Can some one give me a figure of how much it cost them? and if anyone lives in the Vancouver B.C area can recommend a clinic or doctor to see?

Anonymous said...

don't get the surgery. there's no point. the extra skin really helps spice up oral sex. and in my opinion it's not painful at all... more feeling? yes.

There is nothing wrong with the first one at all.

I have the opposite problem. I have almost no inner labia and I wish mine were longer. I've had men ask me if I had suregery to make it look like that. I think men like big lips.

Anonymous said...

I've thought about this procedure for a few years. I am 23 and have been harassed because of my appearance. Cartoon pictures have been traded among ex boyfriends and friends and just recently I was receiving prank phone calls with the harassment. I haven't been as sexual active nor turned on by anything since that prank phone call. This procedure would be an excellent confidence booster and help me become sexually active with my boyfriend again

Anonymous said...

How about a male opinion? My girlfriend has a large labia and i love it, it feels great too. There is no reason to worry about you looks. But on the other hand if it stops you from doing anything then there's a problem, If it ruins your confidence then there is a problem, and if it is uncomfortable then it needs to be fixed. My girlfriend has been thinking about this surgery for a while now and i will be sad to see it go but happy for her. Anything that makes her more comfortable makes me happy. And if you think this surgery is right for you then do it.

Anonymous said...

Im 15 and feel really un-comfertable with the looks of mine but then browsing before and after pictures have made me think twice about having surgery in a few years because 'downthere' doesnt look as bad as most of the people who have had it done and on some pictures mine looks like the after picture, reading the comments have also helped too. =] xx

nichelle said...

I want to get this surgery done for the discomfort from things like wearing tight jeans to even sex. Sex has become so painful, I don't even want to do that anymore. It has nothing to do with how it looks. Can anyone reccommend a good doctor? I live in Atlanta but I a willing to travel.

Hey im only seventeen and i suffer from large labia.
I havent told a single person about it and i am the only one who knows. Not only does it affect my confidence massively it hurts and is ugly. I really want the op but i dont know if i am too young and i'm to scared to tell my mum about it!
Its not about vanity unless you have it you don't understand!
Just writing this comment is hard never mind telling someone i know!
I dont know what to do :'(

Anonymous said...

I am an old lady (62 yrs) with the same problem, too big a labia. If I were a young girl, I would have it done because I always felt "I was'nt right" down there. In fact, when I was a baby, my mother asked a neighbor lady what she thought of mine? The neighbor told my mom, "hers is just like mine". Yes, I wish I could have had something done was I was young. So, girls, do it if your uncomfortable!!

Hey all

I have to say this blog has been a real eyeopener!! I have had large, and uneven labia since I was 15, and I really hated them. Over the years (I am 28) and never having any complaints (in fact compliments!!) has helped me get used to them, slightly. I am still not happy with them completeley (don't think us women ever will be with anything!! lol) HOWEVER, the man I am madly in love told me he could not understand what I was worried about, he had come across bigger labia, smaller, different coloured and that he loved mine, indeed he loves going down on me. This is gradually sinking in, and after reading all the comments here, THANK YOU everyone. I think I am starting to really appreciate them. They are unique and by all accounts men love them big. I actually think the BEFORE pictures are more feminine and womanly, and I never thought I would think that!! And as for porn, they are LOADS of female porns stars with BIG labia, so I don't understand why woman want smaller. If you look, as I have, to compare, even porn stars are big, small, different coloured etc.
Thanks guys and girls for your wonderful comments, they are brilliant and insightful to read. You younger ladies, please don't feel you are strange, really you are not!! I do understand if they are uncomfortable, I often shift about in my chair at work!! BUT ladies, please don't get the op for the look, men love all different kinds of labia.

LADIES, SORRY TO BREAK IT TO YOU, but 99.8% of men out there could care less what your vagina looks like. If you think about most men dont even know where the gspot is and many dont even know where the clit is. So take it from a guy that has been with a numerous amount of women, WE DONT CARE!!!!!Save your money.

Anonymous said...

i have big lips and it helps to see pictures of before and after to see what is considered big and small. i've always thought mine ugly and they have got in the way of sex. i thought there was a problem with me sometimes until i realised that it was my lips - i'd be wet inside them but dry outside so i couldn't be penetrated. it would make me embarassed and i'd be desperately willing my lips to give way! in the end, i'd use my hand to guide the penis inside me while quickly using my fingers to part my lips. or else, i'd try to quickly get all my lips wet without my partner seeing. having read all the comments, it seems so silly! so thank you to all the people who have said how nice labia are and how they like the feel of them, to suck them and pull them and how they feel round the penis. things i never knew! and i feel 100% happier about my lips now and in fact, think of them as sexy now. fantastic!

Anonymous at 16. You shouldn't be having sex anyway, so get over it. By the time you're 20, if you are having sex, your lips will be down to your knees.

I have had this problem forever... So much that my mom calls my labia "wings." I have also been nicknamed "knot's landing," because they are literally so long, that you can tie them in a knot... They are very uncomfortable, especially during periods when they "stick" to the pad/liner... They become very tender and inflamed... I think the surgery is great and would love to get it done, however, my husband likes them the way they are, so I will leave them... It just seems like life would be a lot easier. Every time I have sex they become very sore, and then it hurts to even walk, let alone wear jeans... It is a real problem, and most women do not do it for cosmetic reasons. It is hard to live with them, because they affect every aspect of self confidence... Good luck to everyone!!

To the 18-year-old girl from Vancouver- I too am 18 and have had issues with this since I was about 13. After years of debating whether or not this surgery was for me, I finally decided that I would never feel fully comfortable with myself without getting this procedure done. I called to make an appointment for a consultation two weeks ago at the False Creek Surgical Centre and got to meet with the surgeon within 10 days of calling. The doctor was very helpful and my surgery has been set to take place two weeks from now. They seem to be knowledgeable and professional and getting an appointment was quick. However, their efficiency has proven to be very costly. Never-the-less, you should give them a call. Good luck!

To add to the Vancouver girl, the fee for my procedure, which is perfectly standard with a good plastic surgeon, is $7 000.

Anonymous said...

Hi there. As a man I think that tight is good. It means that is not connected with your labias. Please leave them natural. But if they make problems to you or if you feel uncomfortable you can have the op. by consulting with your husband or with your doctor if you are not going to have any problem in the future. Anyway natural is ok. :)

There are websites with beautiful women with large labia, check them out. What's the big deal? If someone doesn't like your labia its probably because they watch so much porn and have small weenies anyway. Learn to be better in bed then look pretty in bed. Nuff said! I love my large lips

Hi i'm 24 and also have large labia. I noticed it when i was about 13 whilst going through puberty. I have always been embarresed of my labia and am now looking at having labiaplasty. I have had a quote from Surgicare which was £2,800 and they have sent me some information about the surgeon who would do it for me if i was to go ahead. His name is Nicholas Morris and he is GMC Registered. Has anyone else used him as a surgeon, i would be really grateful for any information you might be able to give me. Thanks

Am interested myself as I've had the issue since I was a teen..
Did my research, average $4,000-$5,500 NY and Miami prices.
And for those of you women who are opposed to the surgery because you claim your partners have not had a problem w/ your oversized labia, believe me, the terms "roastbeef", "popped out" etc do come out of their mouths, and most likely behindd your back.. I'm female w/ good platonic male friends who after a few drinks, will talk 'loosely' about their hookups..

Maria said...

To everyone who has had this surgery or is going to get it done good for you! And to the people who are saying not to get it how can you tell someone no to do it when you have never had this problem. If you like how you look down there awsome, if your large labia doesn't bother you great. If I could afford this surgery I would have gotten it years ago. I don't think people are meant to be constantly uncomfortable or in pain, plus feel so bad about their labia that they can't even have a relationship. Just try to imagine never being comfortable no matter what you wear or how you walk, sit, run, etc. You stick to your underwear, when you pull them off it hurts and sometimes bleeds. It is so frustrating at times that I just want to cut it off so I wouldn't have to deal with it anymore(sooo not a good option but when your frustrated...). Im 24 I've had sex once and that was because I was crazy drunk(I don't recommend drinking to have sex, learned from that experience not good). Everyone is intitled to their opinion if you are getting a labiaplasty for your job(model, dancer, pornstar, etc.),partner, or discomfort and pain thats your choice as long as you make it first and foremost for yourself without pressure from anyone or anything.

Im fourteen and i hate my vagina because of my big lips. I havnt told anyone & I never want anyone to find out.
I know im young and shouldnt be thinking of having sex but if i did get a boyfriend and after a while we did want to have a sexual relationship i dont think i could. The thought of it scares me alot because I wouldnt want him to know that i am ugly down there.
To make me feel even worse about myself, the other week my mum told me about a documentry she saw on tv about women getting labiaplasty and how she never new people had big lips & how yuck it was.
It doesnt hurt me & is rarely uncomfortable. It just makes my self esteem really low. Im thinking even to not have kids cause i dont want them to go through what i go through. I think im going to start saving up for this surgery now, so when im 18 i can get it done.

I'm 15 and have had problems with my large inner labia since i was 13. Not only is it large, but it is ugly and wrinkle even though I have never had sex. I was just born with it. I feel so self-conscious about letting guys see it and have never done any sort of sexual activity. I feel like I'm missing out on a big part of life and experimentation. Of course it hurts and is uncomfortable, but I hate them mostly due to embarrassment.

In my research, I can across a website in which I read horror stories where all of the labia minora was taken off, or there was even more pain after the surgery, etc.
Can anyone give me some more direct imput?
Preferably- what do guys think about them?
