Skin Tags While Pregnant?

At first i thought that i had an STI but when i looked online it doesn't look anything like that. They look like skin tags. And i went to the hospital recently and the doctor checked to see if i was dialated. I assume that if it was an STI should would have me get tested. I have a doctors appointment tomorrow and im going to have her double check just to be on the safe side.


So has any one else had skin tags around there vagina when they were pregnant and do they go away?

Skin Tags While Pregnant?
Make sure you talk to the doctor about the skin tag. Tell him/her that you'd like a test if they think it's a STD. I haven't had any skin tags, but my good friend did while she was pregnant - it did go away after she gave birth.
Reply:my wife has a skin tag near hers and she's not even pregnant, there's no need to panick!





Good luck with your pregnancy
Reply:My sister had the same thing--even the first doc, just an student doc, said it was an STD, but her OB said it was just skin tags. And they are very common in pregnancy. And no, they won't go away after you deliver, but your doc can snip them off in office.
Reply:Yes, i had one during my pregnancy, my doctor removed it and said it was due to hormone level increases. Years later I have one on my underarm,why i'm getting it now i don't know. Doctor says not to worry
Reply:you know how some people have little strawberry marks that look like busted veins under the skin?? some on my hand went crazy and proturded completely out, kinda like they exploded out of my skin. i would bump them and they would bleed. i had to have them removed. i will probably have it with this pregnancy too. you body does funny things when you pregnant





oh and this sounds like genital warts to me that are cause from HPV and they are harmless during pregnancy and will go away on there own. they are going crazy because you are pregnant. my sister has them, and she is 3 months.
