Hello XXXXXXX

Thanks for the query.

Soft lump in the vagina could be either polyp or cystocele. It can be confirmed by your gynecologist on physical exam.

If cervical polyp then it is better to remove it, as it might cause menstrual problems.
If cystocele, you can do perineal exercises (Keigel's exercises) .

Hope I have answered your query. Any further query is most welcome.

Wishing you good health.

Regards.
