Ectropion of the labia may be due to congenital dysplasia or diseases such as bacterial vaginitis or vulvar eczema. Different causes can be treated with medication or surgery as prescribed by the doctor.
1. Congenital dysplasia: If it does not affect normal life, no special treatment is needed, and the patient can take good care of vulvar hygiene. If it affects the patient’s normal sex life and fertility, it can be treated by minimally invasive surgery.
