Genital appearance changes after weight loss
I have a question to ask about my vagina. I recently checked my vagina with a mirrior and noticed that it
is open. What could be the causing my vagina to open when i m still a virgin? How can I tighten my vagina
back? Is because of weight problem? Cause last time I was fat and now I have lost a lot weight? Could it
be caused by a weight problem or some other stuff?Our answer...
Thanks for writing! Congratulations on the weight loss,
You didn't mention your age or any background, so I have to think that you have had a menstrual period. Your vagina is not a closed space and neither is the vaginal opening. Rather, the vaginal canal is a potential space that opens automatically, especially with sexual stimulation. Plus, the opening of your vagina is not sealed shut. If it were, you would never know if you had a period and you might be more susceptible to problems, even as a virgin!
When you were overweight the lips (labia) surrounding your vaginal opening may have been pushed together making it look like it was sealed shut. As you lost weight, the fat cells in the labia shrank and allowed the opening to become exposed. Slight exposure of the inner lips is normal. Also, when you looked at yourself in the mirror, were your leg wide open. This could also open your labia to a greater visibility.
Shrinking things or tightening the labia surrounding the vaginal opening will probably not happen overnight - the body has to gradually get used to the 'new' you. With time, the labia may reposition to keep your vagina more 'private.' Keep the weight off for a while and see what happens.
