New Delhi: Camel toe might be a term that only millennials might be accustomed with but it is a common occurrence which leaves many concerned. It refers to a woman’s labia majora when it is outlined when a lady wears body cons or fitted clothes such as leggings, yoga pants, spandex shorts and swimwear. But many women wonder why it happens? Is it because of a loose vagina? Read on to find out. Doctors say that camel toe refers to the thick labial folds and while the vagina is an internal muscular organ, it has nothing to do with looseness tightness.

Why does a camel toe happen?

The following reasons are to blame for it:

  • Wearing old clothes
  • Wearing extremely tight clothes that leave no leave between the cloth and the body
  • Not wearing undergarments, especially under tight-fitted clothes
  • Childbirth – women after childbirth are likely to experience camel toe as the belly fat and labial fat become loose and thick making it more visible, but this can be subjective

    • How to wear tight clothes safely without camel toe appearing?

    In order to avoid camel toe from appearing or forming, some simple tips can help fix the situation. Try the following:

  • Try to wear a slightly bigger size of leggings if possible to give space between the intimate area and the clothes to prevent it from sticking to the body.
  • Wear a liner inside tight clothing as an extra layer in between helps conceal the extra fat or the labia from appearing prominently
  • Avoid cosmetic therapies – some women opt for vaginal tightening and shaping surgeries. These procedures involve the use of HIFU (high frequency focused ultrasound) or PEMF (pulsed electromagnetic field therapy) that might help tighten and tone the private parts in a painless way.
