Q: Extra vaginal tissue

I have noticed that i have a build up of tissue around the entrance to my vagina, its like a thick mass of tissue.
im getting worried that it could be some sort of cancer, but after looking online there is nothing that really helps me, im eighteen and non of the cancers are really for my age, but obviously it could be.
what advise would you give, go see a doctor? or is it nothing to worry about?
im very nervous and embarassed about my body when it comes to going to the doctors. have you come across anything like this before?

please could you help, thank you

You should go see a doctor.

If it wasn't there before, you definitely need to get it checked up. You shouldn't be worried or embarrassed when it comes to your body. Just remember that these doctors are professionals. Go to one that you can trust and anyway, they've seen much worse so don't be afraid.
