Definition
Asymmetry refers to a noticeable difference in size or shape between the two labia minora.
Causes
It’s normal for the labia minora to be slightly asymmetrical. However, significant asymmetry can be caused by genetics, hormonal changes, or injury.
Considerations
- Normal Variation: In most cases, some degree of asymmetry is perfectly normal and doesn’t require any intervention.
- Self-consciousness: For some individuals, significant asymmetry can be a source of self-consciousness.
Disclaimer
If asymmetry is causing you distress, consult a doctor to discuss your concerns and explore options.
