Cause And Treatment For Closed Clitoris?
Question: What is the cause and treatment for a closed clitoris
Hello,
Thanks for posting your query.
Clitorial adhesions usually cause a closed and painful clitoris. It is mostly present since birth. In some cases it may be acquired due to frequent infections and unnatural masturbation practices.
The treatment usually involves gentle cleaning of the adhesions. Usually the patient herself is able to clean the adhesions. In rare cases surgery may be needed.
Hope this answers your query. I will be glad to answer the follow up queries that you have.
Please accept my answer in case you do not have further queries.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.
Dr. Rakhi Tayal.
