Recurrent hypertrophy of the labia minora: a hormonally related lesion possibly related to fibroepithelial stromal polyps of the vulva
Abstract
The literature on hypertrophy of the labia minora has focused predominantly on surgical procedures, with little attention to etiology. We present a case of recurrent labial hypertrophy and postulate that this is a hormonally related lesion, similar to fibroepithelial stromal polyps.
