A gradual loss of volume, often linked to age or to weight loss, which changes both appearance and comfort.
The labia majora protect and cushion - losing their volume is not only a question of appearance.
Over time, the labia majora can lose volume and firmness, leaving thinner and slacker skin. It is a gradual process, comparable to what happens elsewhere on the body.
Skin ageing, significant weight loss, pregnancy or the hormonal decline of the menopause are the most frequent causes. Genetics also play a part.
Beyond how you look at your own body, this loss of volume reduces the protective role of the labia majora and can encourage chafing, discomfort in fitted clothing or on a bicycle, and even discomfort during intercourse.
