A member asked:
I have a mole on my lady part.. the outer labia i guess is the term. should i talk to a gynecologist about getting it removed or a dermatologist?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Either is fine: Either one should be able to remove it for you. The gynecologist may be more comfortable working in that area and the dermatologist may have a better idea whether it is something you really need to worry about.
