Function of the labia

The labia minora can be said to be the gatekeeper of the private parts. When the legs are put together, the two labia minora will naturally close together, completely covering the urethra and vaginal opening. Not only can they protect these two parts from injury due to friction, they can also prevent external infection and keep the vagina moist.

With the opening of concepts, female friends not only pay attention to the comfort and health of their private parts, but also have requirements for "beauty". Gynecologists will tell female friends not to be shy about observing their private parts, because changes in appearance can tell whether there is an infection. If you notice redness, swelling, heat, pain, excessive secretion, changes in smell and color, itching, or other uncomfortable symptoms on the vulva, you should see a doctor immediately.

Regarding the problem of labia minora, the most common one is that it is too long. If the labia minora is too long, it will be detrimental to the discharge of vaginal secretions and it will be difficult to clean. Urine will easily remain near the genitals after urination, which will not only increase the secretions but also cause odor problems. In the outpatient clinic, many older female friends have seen gynecologists for repeated infections and the problem was not solved after surgery.
