A member asked:

Labia lips are hanging down and i am not sexually active. it makes me uncomfortable because it hurts sometimes when i wear thongs. help please.

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Depends: The size and appearance of the inner lips varies from smallish and tucked inside to large elephant ears that protrude.One side can also be longer/larger than the other. These can be reshaped by gyn surgeons in a day surgery procedure. If interested, seek a consultation and decide what will work for you.
