I Have 2 Huge Flaps On Both Sides Of My Clitoris That Are At Least 3 Inches Long

I am 26 years old I have 2 huge flaps on both sides of my clitoris that are at least 3 inches long I am 26 years old I have 2 huge flaps on both sides of my clitoris that are at least 3 inches long I dont think this is normal and I dont know what to do Its just skin that hangs there and there is no sensitivity at all on these pieces of skin What do I do I am a 26 year old female & I am in the obese category. My vagina is on the large side. I am having a problem with understanding why there are flaps on both sides of my clitoris that are very large and what I can do about it. The skin is almost like a ball sack without testicles . My clitoris is also very large and I grow hair frequently on my chin that I have to wax often. So I m thinking this is a testosterone problem that I was born with and it was never addressed. Also could this be a problem that has to do with being overweight? I am 5 foot 7 inches tall & I weigh 275 pounds. I gained 100 of those over a 1 year period 3 years ago, but I ve had this problem since my early teens when I only weighed around 160 pounds. Help me please.

Hi,
This problem is related to hormones and obesity.You need to find out the cause behind this because 26 is too young to have so many problems.You need to have a long list of tests including thyroid tests,DHEA,testosterone,androgen,sugars etc.The problem with the clitoris is due to the obesity and the only way to fix that is surgery.However,i think that your hormonal problems need to be addressed first.
