A member asked:
Does a biopsy of the labia majora hurt? how long until results?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Biopsies : Usually before a biopsy your doctor may use a topical or local anesthesia to numb the area. You will probably have slight discomfort, but no severe pain. Pathology results can sometimes take up to a few weeks to come back depending on where they are processed. Good luck!
