Suggest Treatment For Skin Protrusion Near Vaginal Opening

I had sexual intercourse while intoxicated possibly causing dryness in my vagina. There was blood after sex, a good amount. Bleeding stopped the next day but a dark brown discharge infrequently came out for about 2 weeks now. Now I am about to get my period so I was not sure if that is why the discharge was occurring. Four days before my start of placebo pill on birth control I forgot to take it so I took it the next morning. Usually when I miss a pill too close to the start of my period I end up getting it early. Also I was looking at myself with a hand held mirror and it seemed like there was a piece of tissue slightly protruding from my vaginal opening. It is a little swollen too, it isn t painful but there is a slight discomfort and sometimes an itch. I am not sure if it is related to having sex while too dry and it tore something. I just want to figure out what is wrong! Thank you!

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

It seems you did not have any trouble with the skin protrusion before this. It looks like a vaginal polyp, no worries, vaginal polyps are mostly benign. When twisted or infected these polyps may cause foul smelling discharge & bleed during intercourse. Visit your Gynae get a pelvic examination done. Get investigated, screening tests like biopsy, STD tests, USG, MRI may be needed to rule out cysts or cancer. If the benign polyp is not bothersome it does not require treatment & may disappear by itself but if patient wants to remove it, it can be done by a minor surgery. Take care of your hygiene, take calcium & iron rich diet. Go for protected sex.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
