Hi, today i have had two biopsy samples taken on my vulva. I’m worried that my doctor wasn’t listening or paid attention to the area of my concern. I have two ulcers on my clitoris however he took biopsy of skin that is far away from this area. Is this normal? I thought he’d take a sample of the ulcer? How can I be sure the results will be accurate? Anyone help. Thanks

  • Hi and welcome to the online community

    I'm sorry to hear that you're worried that your doctor may have taken skin for a biopsy from the wrong area.

    For your peace of mind the only thing I can suggest is that you ring up and voice your concerns to him. He should be able to explain why he took the sample from the area that he did.
