Thanks a lot for your advise. anyway, i have a lot of complex because of my labia minora and i'm decided to do the surgery. the hipertrophy it's in the left side too, and maybe it has to do with hormons, i don't know, but after the surgery i will visit a gyn to make sure that the problem will not turn out again. Sometimes it's uncomfotable,you know why, but the most important point because i've decided to have surgery is the shy i feel that i can't show anyone my vulva,and i've never had sexual relations (i'm 22). As you can understand is very important to me to solve this problem and feel selfconfident, and be able to have boyfriend and have sex with him. Fortunately where I live it doesn't seem to be a problem to have this kind of surgery, and i've found many doctors whom are able to do it. I think all of them are professionals, but i will ask how many times they have done this operation to make sure they will do it properly. thanks for telling me about your story kisses niña
