Re: ANATOMY: Absent labia minora and clitoral hood

I am assuming you have discussed this with your gyn provider ? Have you ever been pregnant ? Have you been evaluated for any possible inherited genetic condition ? This is very unusual, and I wonder what the gyn surgeons would think. You didn't mention your age...do you have regular cycles, and could you conceive if you wanted to ? Some women have uneven labia, some women/men have extra nipples or extra breasts, and I am sure there are a wide variety of types and shapes. I guess my question would be....is there anything else associated and what can be done, or do you wish to be done. Then go for it. Are you able to orgasm and experience sexual pleasure ?
