I was born with a birthmark (mole) in the
pubic region of my pelvis slightly above
my genitals. In pre-puberty, it was
flat. After puberty, I pretty much
forgot I had it since it became covered by
pubic hair. One night my wife noticed it
with her hand, unaware of it until that
night. I noticed that it had became
enlarged, cluster like, and elevated. I
had a demotologist look at and he stated
that it was probably irritated by chafing
and being bumped against.
Has anyone else had a mole to change like
th? Also, I wouldn't think it would be
classified as a genital wart (std), would
it? Since it is actually a birthmark.
I thinking of having it removed either by
a topical treatment or even surgically.
Any recommendations on a treatment?

Changes In Birthmark Posted: 05-11-06 16:58pm
I had a similar experience with a mole and
when I saw my doctor I asked him why one
of my moles grew like that. He told me
that each mole has its own growth pattern.
He said that at first, some moles are
flat like a freckle. Over time though,
they usually enlarge. As the years pass,
moles usually change slowly, becoming more
raised and lighter in color. So probably,
your mole just grew at its normal rate and
you just didnt notice because you didnt
see it for a while. I would go see your
dermatologist again though just to make
sure.
