I never knew this was from PCOS. Wow! I do know about the surgery, which is rising in popularity, but please, please no one get this surgery. There are many complications, the most frequent are infection and loss of sensation. No use having small labia if you can't feel anything! Just my $.02
Psssh. I have only ONE. The other is a teeny nub and I hate it. I wish I could get either one enlarged or one removed so I don't have a deformed va-jay-jay. It sucks. I don't even like DH to look at me down there.

nooooo i have tiny ones.. and they're slowly shriveling into NOTHING. *wonders what could cause this*
I do, however, have HUGE outer lips. I don't think its because I gained weight because they were huge even before.. the only thing gaining weight did to my vajayjay was make the mound part pudgier.

My inner lips are slightly longer than the outer lips.

It does suck though, never see any women in the pornos like mine O.o, I don't see how men would really care though, But then again, i am only 18... Alot of immature young men my age who pick little things like that!
I know what you mean - I was so paranoid about mine all through school and constantly felt like I had a dirty secret in my knickers! I'm not paranoid about them any more though.
I agree with you about some young men. But in my experience there are a lot of older men who find longer labia minora a turn on.

I doubt it is because of PCOS.I've read somewhere that it is due to high estrogen.
Moreover,there are so many girls with this condition and without PCOS.
Anyway,I would like them cut,'cause it's sometimes uncomfortable and even it hurts!
Interesting thread! I have high testosterone as i have PCOS but mine are super tiny. My ex one day said "I wish your inner lips were bigger!" so it just depends on random things I guess. My outter lips are bigger and hubby likes that. My clitoris is really small too. I too once asked a GYNO if everything looked "normal" down there and he actually laughed at my question and assured me it all looked just fine. The things we women go through! But at least we don't have the size issue that some men do...

Yep, I got it to. interesting question. One side is longer than the other which I always thought was a bit odd but apparently it's normal. It's never bothered me enough to actually seek medical council or anything though. It can be a pain sometimes when it gets really sensitive (like near and during af.. eugh) but beyond that it's just another bit of a woman that comes in all varieties heh.
For the record, I apparently have low testosterone but it's almost entirely free testosterone.. hense i'm furry (lol)
Surgury on lady bits!? EEEK. The concept horifies and frightens me. My bits are precious, I aint having no knives near em!

Mine are uneven and I find it a little annoying. None of my partners ever noticed or if they did they didn't say anything about it. I did have one gyno take an extra second or two to look at the larger one when doing my pap but she didn't ask me about it or tell me that it was weird so I just assumed that LMs are kind of like like boobs, different shapes, different sizes and not always even.

I also have one that is much longer than the other side. I hate it, and usually "tuck" it back in. Besides that, however, I would say that the inner are medium sized, maybe a bit large, but they are covered completely by my outer lips, which are very "puffy".

I had no idea this could be PCOS related! One of mine is bigger, too! It's never physically hurt me, but when I first noticed it when I was a teenager, I thought I was weird! DH isn't bothered by it, and my OBGYN has never given me any indication that it was a problem! Hmmm! Interesting!

I have large labia, and noticed as a little girl that my mother had them also. I really don't think it has anything to do with PCOS, but I do believe it is genetic. I know as a woman it can be embarrassing, only because we stress out about our looks weight, etc., etc.. We constantly try to live up to what the media's perception of beautiful women are. And to tell you the truth, it is stupid. I have quite a lot of male friends, whom I talk to about issues such as these, the funny thing about it, the majority of men are just happy to be getting laid, they don't have the time or any intention to dissect our bodies the way women do to themselves or others. So I would say that if it is causing you pain then go ahead and have surgery to fix it, if not, why bother? I just watched a porno last night in fact, that had a woman with large labia, and I thought it was great! We as women have to stop this garbage of trying to be something that is not obtainable, or factual, and learn to be happy with who we are.
I must admit that I sometimes watch porn only because of the girls' labia...Am I nuts?
What do you mean - to compare, or because you think they're attractive?
I think larger ones are really sexy. I never thought I'd come to terms with mine (which are slightly larger than average I suppose) but I realised I find them attractive on other women.
