How To Get Rid Of A Mole On Vaginal Area?
I have a mole on my vagina area it s raised and had it since birth. It really puts me off having intercourse with men and when I do I m constantly hiding it which takes away the expierience. I m so self conscious about it. Also my underwear iratates it and shaving pubic area is a nightmare. There s no signs of it being cancerous it s just a major inconveince. How could I get it removed?

Hello. Thanks for writing to us at healthcaremagic
A benign mole such as this can be easily removed with Co 2 Laser vaporization under local anesthesia, where the whole of the mole would simply be vaporized with the Laser energy.
Post procedure there would be a raw area where you need to apply an OTC topical antibacterial to prevent any secondary bacterial infection till the raw area gets covered with skin.
I would suggest that you visit a dermatologist or a laser surgeon for the procedure.
