LIPS OF VAGINA DISCOLORED

Over the last year i have noticed an area on my inner labia that is darker purple. I used to thing it was just wierd skin because its on my bigger labia and i thought it was just hangy skin. My problem is that the area is getting bigger. Even when i spread the skin, the discoloration stays. Could I have done this by having too much sex?

@ Mamlyn:
Well in your case is genetics then, you were born this way. Thirteen is definitely too young for any other reason.

@Pebbals:
Vagina lips ARE indeed different, inner ones from outer ones, it's perfectly normal. And you girls should NEVER make a comparison with (let's say) porn actresses, because only god knows what those girls do to their vaginas before filming.
Vaginas are all different (like penises).
You are sexually active? Then I believe your boyfriend likes you. So he will like your vagina too.

Girls, don't make the mistake to think that just because you think a vagina is ugly, your guys think that too.
If they like to have sex with it, they probably like to "talk" to is as much. Don't be embarassed to let your man go near your special place.
Maybe, if you want to have more selfconfidence, either keep your hair there, so he won't see a thing, or shave enough to be able to use a mirror and take a look at it.
I'm sure you can honestly tell if your vagina is cute or terrible. But be CONFIDENT!
Males like the vagina, it's a fact.

I am sixteen years old, I realised over 2 years ago that my iner lips are different sizes and colours, I am a sexually active person, my boyfriend always asks if he can see my vagina and I always say no, will he think I'm disgusting if he knew? I don't know what to do, it brings me down a lot. Shall I see a doctor?

Hi,

I don't want to sound like a smartass, but indeed the discolouring of THAT part is caused by three factors:

1) Genetics, so if you were simply born with brighter lips or darker lips.
We cannot help that, it's genetics, mother nature big plan lol

2) Aging, because as you get older, the body takes more and more time to pump blood in every single part.
Aging is not that bad, but indeed, as you keep aging, the body need more and more energy to do the stuff that could be easily done when we were 15-25-30, so yes, even pumpin blood to the last micro-inch of the lips is more difficult.

3) too much sex.
Yes, too much sex can discolour the lips, and no, not because you colour them with the black penis of a black dude lol, but simply because, I hate to say this (because it's the truth) the vagina is a very delicate place. Women are delicate.
We are indeed able to give birth to babies, but the vagina is definitely sensitive, and (as you may well know) the vagina is elastic, very elastic.
So the lips are definitely subject to loosening.
I don't know if I'll get censored for what I'm going to say, but everytime our partners (well, our partners penises) go in and out, in and out, they rub against our vagina lips, rubbing them in and then out.
Now try to imagine that action, done for 10-20-30 years?
Yes, that's right, loosening.
I'm not saying we should all stop having sex lol, but yeah, having too much sex will eventually loosen your vagina lips.
It all depends how much sex you have, and how tough your lips are, that is, how much they will resist before they loosen.
If we look at it that way, the less your lips are elastic, the better will be, because less elastic means less loosening.
Of course, if you have small lips, your blood pressure will have no problem covering that, but if you have.... ehm long lips, the blood will not go there, that's why long lips are usually dark.
You won't find long vagina lips that are pink coloured. Well I never met them yet lol.
Never wondered why pornstars actresses (a good 50% of them) have terrible vagina lips? lol
Hope this helped.
