Many women will find that their labia has gradually turned black from the original pink and tender. What is going on? How to do labia care? Let's take a look at the detailed explanation below.
1. Where are the labia located?
In the traditional impression, the labia located in the mysterious area is a mysterious delta that I am embarrassed to spy on.
Generally speaking, the private part refers to the labia minora. The labia minora is located on the inner side of the labia majora, extending from the clitoris to the frenulum. It is composed of connective tissue rich in blood vessels, so it looks pink on the outside. Covered with stratified squamous epithelium. The front part of the labia minora is divided into two parts, the inner part and the outer part.
2. What are the functions of the labia?
The labia minora can be said to be the gatekeeper of the private parts. When the legs are together, the two pieces of the labia minora will naturally close together, completely covering the urethra and vaginal opening, which not only protects these two parts from being injured by friction, but also prevents Foreign infection, and can keep the genitals moist.
With the opening of concepts, female friends not only pay attention to comfort and health, but also have more "beauty" requirements for private parts. Gynecologists will tell female friends not to be ashamed to observe their private parts, because from changes in appearance, you can first know whether they are infected. If you find that the vulva has redness, swelling, heat, pain, excessive secretion, or uncomfortable symptoms such as changes in taste and color, itching, etc., you should see a doctor as soon as possible.
Regarding the problem of labia, the common problem is that it is too long. If the labia minora is too long, it will be unfavorable for the discharge of vaginal secretions, and it is not easy to clean. After urinating, urine is easy to remain near the genitals, which will not only increase the secretion, but also produce peculiar smell. The problem, in the outpatient clinic, there are many older female friends who did not see the gynecologist's opinion because of repeated infections, and only resolved their troubles after surgery. In recent years, some patients have come to seek medical treatment because they are worried that it is too dark there.
Third, the reason for the darkening of the labia
There are many interesting speculations about the darkening of the labia. For example, the darkening of the labia of a woman is due to the friction of walking, causing the labia to darken; or because some lotions are not good, it seems that many lotions are corrosive.
These claims are hilarious, but not scientific, in fact, the darkening of the labia in women usually does not rule out the following reasons: genetic causes, excessive sex, and normal pigmentation.
That is to say, the darkening of the labia caused by intercourse, including the vaginal opening and the inner and outer labia, during sex, the labia is repeatedly stimulated by external friction for a long time, so that the local pigmentation increases, and its color will deepen with time. It is a normal physiological phenomenon, and at the same time, the melanin of the sexually stimulating hormone will also turn the labia into a dark halo color.
