Female Body Concerns / Question
Published: July 15, 2003
Dear TeenHealthFX,
I noticed on the upper part of my vagina I have a lump. It is inside and moves around like a little marble. It's been there for a while and hasn't gone away. Is this something I should be concerned about?

Teens with untreated depression are more likely to engage in risky sexual behaviors, leading to higher rates of teen pregnancy and sexually transmitted diseases.
