A member asked:

I have a string of skin hanging from my vagina if i do not get this removed will it cause me to not be able to have babies?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Probably not: It sounds like a skin tag or a part of your hymenal ring. It can be irritating but will not prevent you from getting pregnant.
