Okay. This could be one of several things.

First, are you sexually active? By your description alone it is impossible for anyone online to tell you, but soft, fleshy growths in the genital area can be genital warts, an STD. There are other causes of fleshy growths around the genitals, and all of them need to be evaluated by a medical professional.

If you are not sexually active, or have tested negative for any STDs, then what you are describing sounds like your normal anatomy. Depending on how old you are, your vulva may be going through perfectly normal maturation development. The very young vagina and labia (lips around the vaginal opening) are very smooth and rounded. There is almost no folding or wrinkling of tissues. As girls go through puberty, the vulva (external genitalia) go through changes. As you may or may not know, there are two sets of labia (lips): the labia majora (big outer lips), and the labia minora (smaller inner lips). During puberty, the LM grow hair and get slightly bigger, and the labia minora develop into more flanged, wrinkly-wavy-looking flaps. Also, you should keep in mind that the hymen (membrane that partially or completely covers the vaginal opening during childhood) may not be intact by your age, and hymenal tags (pieces of the membrane that simply stay, but not attatched to each other, perfectly normal) might be what you're describing.

What I advise is that you go to your library or book store, and find a textbook on anatomy. Look up female reproductive organs and all of the anatomical words I used above. If what you are seeing and feeling looks nothing like the pictures of "normal" in the books, then I would go see a midwife or doctor. Both are skilled in well-woman care; the midwife will most likely have a more holistic approach and understand any apprehension you may have, and the doctor will probably be better able to specifically identify any abnormalities.

Good luck, and I hope it turns out alright!

ewwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww!!!!!!!!! go see a doctor ok!! thts all i gotta say buddy!
