Question : I just noticed a small white bump on my clitoris. It's not painfu, itchy or irritated, but it is quite large. There are no other symptoms and only the one bump. What could it be? Is there anything I can do to make it go away?

The bump is on the side of the clit, and has stayed the same size for the last two days. There is also an incridebly tiny white mark right above it as well. I'm really getting worried about it.

Brief Answer:
Cyst in the clitoris

Detailed Answer:
Hi dear,
I have gone through your question and understand the concerns.
I have reviewed the photograph.
It seems to be a cyst, either Gartner's duct cyst or simple glandular cyst, and is likely to be infected, if not treated timely.
I will suggest you to consult an OBGYN specialist for proper examination and treatment accordingly.
Hope you found the answer helpful.
Regards
