Question: Hi , i just had a baby 3 months ago and he was a still birth so they checked me for STDs and stuff and said i was okay but after a while i started to feel a lump next to my vaginal opening . It was the color of my skin and wasnt soar or anything . When i stretch my skin out it seems to go away . Do you have any idea what it could be ?

Brief Answer:
Most likely a vaginal skin tag.

Detailed Answer:
Hello
Thanks for writing to us with your health concern.
I think what you are having is a vaginal tag.
This is a loose fold of vaginal tissue, often noticed after recent childbirth, where the vagina stretches itself during delivery.
This can often be confused with vaginal polyps.
Would you mind uploading a photo of the lump - I would be more sure then.
All the best
