"   Question I have a really embarrassing problem; I don\u2019t think I can even ask my mum about it.  The problem I have is with the flaps of skin that are outside the vagina area. One of the pieces of skin is pink and looks normal, but the other side, it is longer than the other.  It is a weird bluey-grey colour, and it looks really unhealthy.  I am so scared \u2013 what if it is cancer or something?  It stretches like elastic and is kind of numb. I know it would be better for me to see a doctor, but I\u2019m so embarrassed.  I don\u2019t want it to get any worse. It\u2019s been like this for over a year.  When I\u2019m on my period, it seems to shrink slightly, but on other days, it hangs out and irritates me a lot, because it pokes out and rubs on my underwear.  Please help, I\u2019m really confused, scared and worried.    Answer There isn&amp;#039;t the slightest chance that this is cancer!  There are an awful lot of young patients who have exactly the same thing as you. In almost every case, they turned out on examination to be normal!   The only sane thing for you to do now is to let a doctor have a swift look at you and reassure you.  It&amp;#039;s advisable that you see a woman doctor \u2013 for instance at a family planning clinic or a youth advisory clinic.  Assuming you&amp;#039;re in the UK, you can find out the name of your nearest family planning clinic by ringing the Family Planning Association.  Or you can find out about branches of the Brook advisory centre for young people by ringing their helpline on 0808 802 1234.
