What Could Cause Vaginal Rough Looking Protruding Growth?

I have a rough looking and feeling growth that is protruding from the vagina at the bottom. The visible part is about the size of a walnut. Any ideas? I am having it looked at today by an ob/gyn at the advice of my family practice doctor, but want to go in there prepared for what I might hear.

Hi,

According to the description the possibilities are:
- Genital warts, which usually looks like rough growth. Which is caused by human papillomavirus. It can be diagnosed by clinical examination and excision biopsy can confirm that. Cryotherapy, cauterization, etc., are the treatment options.
- Sometimes thickened, protruding vaginal mucosa can be confused as growth. Usually this does not need any specific treatment.

Clinical examination only the exact cause of the problem can be identified and treatment can be planned accordingly. So, please consult your gynecologist get examined and proceed accordingly.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Sree Gouri S. R., OBGYN
