What Could Be The Extra Growth In My Clitoris?
I have a skin tag like extra growth on my clitoris. I ve had it for as long as I can remember. I can t remember when I first noticed it. It s slightly sensitive to touch but other than that I never notice it. It doesn t get bigger or smaller and it s the only one. I ve never slept with a man. Any ideas on what this could be?

Hi,
In my view, you must see a specialist and get examined. The description mentioned is suggestive of verrucas carcinoma which is an uncommon sub-type of a slow growing wart like carcinoma.
It can be treated and have good prognosis. However, to confirm it is benign, biopsy is needed. It could also be genital wart caused by virus, so getting examined by a doctor is necessary.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
