Down there looks different, but c section not vaginal birth

This may be graphic but I need to paint a picture 😂

Prior to birth my inner labia were out and the outer labia appeared smaller. Since birth the inner labia are tucked back in (similar to when I was in my teens/early 20’s)

I can’t tell if my outer labia have just got bigger?

Has anyone else ever had anything like this?! I’d understand changes down there with a vaginal birth but I had emergency c section as I wasn’t dilating past 4cm. My birth was 2 weeks ago

Your hormones are still all over the place 2 weeks after giving birth. I hadn't noticed any changes there but still have a faint but very noticable linea nigra 5 months after giving birth.

So I'm not expert but I have actually read somewhere that your inner labia grow during puberty and they 'recede' again at an older age as hormones change! So it could be that your body has fewer hormones rushing around than it did during pregnancy and this has affected it maybe?
