What Causes Purple Creases On Vaginal Opening?
I am not pregnant, have had a hysterectomy, am years old......why do i have two perfectly symmetrical purple lines in the creases of my vagina, on both sides, that run from my pubic bone, down to the opening of my vagina, and at the opening. they just appeared recently. They don t hurt, do not bulge, do not look like veins. It looks like someone took a purple marker and drew these lines. What is it and should i be concerned?

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern such marking could be due to nonspecific reason or some time may be due compression of that area and that might have folded the skin and caused such lining wait for some time if it does not disappears then better to see the doctor for better diagnosis, take care
