Benign lesion: Could be a multitude of benign lesions such a s a simple cyst, or even an acne like lesion, etc. Hsv negative, so that is good and the fact that it is shrinking is also good. Have the dr. Monitor the are and hopefully it will resolve in time.

Cannot diagnose: Without seeing this speculation is useless. If it continues to bother you go and see a gynecologist and get examined. Good luck.

LABIAL CYST: You probably have a subaceous cyst, resulting from a blocked up gland. Have your doctor look at it. If it persists, it may have to be opened.
