What Can Be The Enlogated Lump Between The Labia Majora And Minora?
I am 29 and recently I have noticed an elongated lump on/between my Labia majora and minora. It isn't visible and you can really only tell its there by feeling the area. Its about 3cm in length and feels soft like its filled with fluid. It isn't painful but it has been there for over three weeks. What could this be?

Hello
i share your concern
this could be a bartholin cyst as per your medical history
this develops due to obstruction in the duct draining the bartholin gland leading to collection of its material within the gland and produces a lump
in my opinion you should consult your gynaecologist for examination
if it's not bothering you much can be left untreated
symptomatic lump can be corrected surgically by procedure called marsupialisation or labiaplasty
hope this addresses your question
wishing you good health
