Have you ever wondered
“Is my vagina normal?”
Lots of women have.
When people say vagina, what they’re often talking about is actually the labia. Labia are the lips or folds of skin that sit on either side of the vaginal opening. You might call them flaps or lips. Whatever you call them, it’s worth knowing that labia are all different. Sometimes this isn’t obvious from what you see in magazines and pornography.
The Labia Library is about showing you that, just like any other part of the body, labia come in all shapes and sizes. They’re also really important in sex and they keep your vagina healthy.
Women’s Health Victoria has developed the Labia Library to bust a few common myths about how normal labia look. There’s also a photo gallery that shows you just how unique everyone’s labia are.
