I have a large mole, is ti cancerous?
I have a large mole which is larger than any other on my body. It is located near the vagina just above my thigh. It is oval shape and sticks out the skin. I am worried this is cancerous. But i've had it for years. I'm just not sure if it has grown in size.
Is it canerous? or am I worrying over nothing?

Go to the doctors to get it checked out. They'll tell you if it is cancerous or not. I have had two moles removed from my body because of the risk of it being cancerous. Basically to tell if it is cancerous check to see if it changes shape, size, or color. These are the most common signs. The only thing I can really tell you is go to the doctor and ask them.
Good luck
I hope this helps

If it has not clearly grown in size or changed colour, become itchy or sore in any way, then the chances anything is wrong with it are very slim. However, the rule of thumb with these sorts of matters are that you should always get any concerns checked out.
What I would recommend is that if you are particularly concerned about this mole, you could speak to your doctor about having it removed anyway, as a preventative method. This is fairly common practise and as far as I am aware, not a painful procedure so if you are worried, see if you can have this done.

I would get it checked out by a doctor, just to be safe. If it is cancerous then maybe they can remove it and if it isn't then you will have peace of mind. I don't know wether its cancerous or not, but you should definately get it checked out. There is a chance that it is cancerous, but it might just be your average, everyday mole. Good Luck.

since it is oval shaped, i would get it checked out. usually cancerous moles are oval, not circle. so it might be, and since your not sure if its gorwn, you dont give much information about it. but since it does stick out of your skin, i think its an even bigger reason for you to get it checked out. you know, just in case. it wont hurt anything. they may end up removing it, just as a precaution. dont worry too much, but i do think you should get it checked. good luck on everything.
hope this helps!! :] ♥

It could be either. I also had a mole just above my groin area and I went to the dermatologist to get it examined and turns out she wanted to removed, just in case. It turned out not to be cancerous, but it gave me piece of mind anyways, and the scar is minimal. Plus, the procedure didn't hurt one bit! So, if it's something that worries you I would discuss options with your local dermatologist just in case.
