Anyone have moles “down there”?

| I had a large mole in my pubic area. I had a dermatologist look at it when I was in my late 20s, and she removed it. After testing, it ended up being precancerous so she removed some more in the area. I never had a gynecologist say anything to me about the mole prior to that, so I'm glad I visited the dermatologist. Fortunately the area has been in the 20 years since, I just have a scar where no hair grows. |

| You can have moles there, but you can also have little vein protrubences which look very similar - common after pregnancy. |

Have one near my cl*****s and was very reluctant but I have a history of melanoma so…
It was embarrassing but I’m glad my derm checked it out. She said she’s had patients with cancerous moles in that area before. |

| My dermatologist tracks mine. |

| Yes, and yes. I was told it was benign. It's not a big deal they are medical professionals and have seen plenty of moles in private areas. |

Mine tracks mine too. I just had one taken off by my plastic surgeon (does my other area wider margin mole removals). Your gynecologist should tell you if they see one but a dermatologist should be the specialist who manages. It is a skin issue not a "vagina" issue. |

Was it removed or just looked at? |

Was yours on mucosal skin? |

| I have a fleshy growth of some sort. It doesn't seem quite like either mole or a skin tag. I've had it forever. Would love to have it removed, but haven't wanted to deal with it. |

She just looked at it and said it was fine. She probably took a photo to track any changes. I’m supposed to get yearly skin checks. |
