Is there a way to fix the pubic bone?

[untitledforher]

I have a protruding pubic bone, and it looks so nasty and I can't wear anything tight, or close to that. I am a woman wearing the baggiest clothing, because it sticks out so much it's just gross. Is there a surgery to flatten it? Or any alternative to surgery? About how much would it cost? I've tried exercise, and even hitting on it hard, because maybe then, after hitting it for a long term, it might stick in more. And it's definitely not a layer of fat because I've exercised so much and the layer of skin there is pretty thin, and I'm not overweight. Is there any place in the US that would do fix it? And if I do fix it, are there any side effects to it? I just want this fixed so bad, because I don't have the freedom to wear what I want, and if I do there is a prominent lump there and it looks so ugly, even my mother told me that. Please let there be a way to fix it...

Well there's a problem with that. I don't care what men think about me, I have no interest in sex or anything of the sort. I hate being what I am, and I am not going to ever have a deep relationship with anyone other than family; in my opinion, it's needless and takes away my freedom. It's not fine to me. It's ugly, humbling, a disgrace, and undignified. I'd never just go and 'gain weight' a lot either, because that would put me at risk for obesity which is something difficult to undo. I don't want men to like me because of a stupid bone that sticks out. I don't want sex, out-of-family deep relationships, kids, or anything attracting rape or that potential. And I also don't want this big, long, nasty looking, pubic bone or a uterus. It might not seem to make sense, because if I don't care about men looking at me, then what do I care about? I just care about what I think looks decent for my body and look respectable and decent to everyone else, too. Having a prominent bone sticking out of the private area of my body and showing in even covered by clothing isn't decent(or close to that) to me. I might sound like a strange person, but that's just the way I am.


@Howard Rosenberg: Thank you. I'll probably look in the phone book for an orthopedist, however, I'm not positive it can be classified a 'deformity'. More likely, I think it's just the way I was born, and I'm dissatisfied and frustrated. It makes me extremely self-conscious and depresses me to the point where it's difficult to be happy about anything because I think about it so much that good news just doesn't please me anymore because I feel handicapped and weighed down by this self-consciousness and anger. It's too bad I'll have to wait until I'm away from my parents to look for an orthopedist or anyone who will perform surgery to rearrange the bone. That's in about 7 years.

If your assessment of your perceived defect is truly a bone deformity, then it does not come under the purview of plastic surgery, but rather orthopedics.  I have never encountered this issue and would suggest consultation with the appropriate specialist.

I think most men would like how you look.You do not need to be fixed.Most thin women have what you are talking about and it doesn't bother Me.You do not need to hit yourself,it won't help.I think you are fine.If you gained weight it might actually be better to cover the bones if You want to.WHY FIX WHAT IS FINE?
