pelvic bone protruding?

when i started discovering my body as a young girl, i realized something different from everyone elses. my vagina looks really bony. when i lay down flat, my pelvic bone is protruding out. even standing up, i can see a big bump. more than normal from what i have seen. i have been told by friends "oh you have big vagina" and it really bothers me. i am embarrassed to be intimate. i did research but didnt come across anything. i'm 25 now and am still embarrassed to go to a doctor. i dont know what the problem really is. i used to crack my lower back, i dont know if that would do anything to it? but i dont feel any pain or anything. just physically, its very different, bony, and embarrassing from what i see. i've been told by several family members " are you wearing a pad" because its that noticeable. i know that if it was from birth, my mom would notice. because now they tell me things like you have fat, big, vagina. i really need to do something about it, but need to know what? and need to know what the problem really is and what may have caused it? and what kind of doctor i should see. and how i should explain it. please answer my questions asap. i cant take it anymore, and i find it embarrassing to share it w/ anyone else. im so glad i found your site, after many years of suffering.

My pubic bone also sticks out really far, but I think it is related to my tailbone injury when I was 14 because I didn't really notice it until afterward.  I fell on my tailbone while roller skating and it was bruised and painful and since then it is shaped differently.  It hurts to lay on flat ground on either my back or my stomach because both my tailbone and pubic bone stick out.

I used to be really self conscious about both and was embarrassed to be intimate.  Now that I have found a very sweet boyfriend who tells me I'm gorgeous, I try not to worry about it.  It kinda ***** wearing bikinis because it is visible when they are too tight, but if you keep looking, you can find bikinis that flatter your figure.  Also, I am 5'7" and 115 pounds so I am pretty much bony all over lol.  

I am 20 now and last year was diagnosed with endometriosis which is a chronic and painful disease.  After having surgery to remove some endometric cysts from my ovary, I decided to just accept my large pubic bone.  First, every woman looks different and this forum reassured me that I am not alone.  Second, surgery is painful, expensive and should only be done if it improves your health.  Third, when I told my boyfriend it bothered me he called me crazy because he says I have a beautiful body and we have hot sex too :D

I know that not feeling feminine is really hard on your confidence, but if the only way to change that is to put yourself through a lot of pain, don't!  You need to learn to accept what you look like and tell your friends and family to do the same.  Having a large pubic bone definitely does not mean you have a "fat vagina" because they are totally unrelated.  I wear a size 0 or 2 so I doubt that any of it is due to fat.  If you are really thin, gaining some weight would probably help which is what I've tried.  

You should also try on many different clothes when you go shopping.  I spend a lot of time looking for jeans that fit.  Just don't get discouraged if something doesn't fit right, move on and keep looking.  Trust me, you can look great and hide that area you are self conscious about, it just might take a bit of effort :)

I have this too!

I used to be embarrassed by it because I was a competitive dancer and my extremely bony AND fatty pubic area resembled the male "package".

Now I couldn't care less. Yes, my pubic bone limits my fashion choices (any tight fitting skirt or stretchy pants material (like lycra) is a dead giveaway to my "unique" figure), but more than one partner has mentioned that my "mound" is sexy.

Forget what other people think and embrace your body, because unless you take drastic measures, it's gonna be this way for the rest of your life.

There are still days I hate my mound (especially when it means I can't buy or wear clothes I like), but overall, it's okay.

There are FAR more unsightly problems to have, be thankful your "flaw" is one that is typically covered by clothes! Life is good if your biggest worry is the shape of your pubic mound - try and think of it that way.

:) we all need to love ourselves a little more.

I love the protruding pubic bone on ladies especially if they have a lot of hair on it to rub my face on. It is so sexy poking out there. The first one I ever saw was a girl in a black sheath dress and she seemed to be aware of it and pretty proud of it to. I know it got me hard. I've played with a few since and I just love them. Don't worry about it ladies. There are guys that are crazy about them. Just wait till you find one and you will!
