    LGV in Women

    In women, LGV is primarily located in the vagina, on the labia majora or minora, and/or the peri-anal region. Very rarely is LGV localized to the uterine cervix (entrance to the uterus found at the end of the vagina). In the case of women, extra-genital lesions (outside of the genital zone) are infrequent. The genital ulceration(s) may be accompanied by a purulent (pus) cervical or vaginal discharge in women. When elephantiasis occurs in the advanced stages of LGV in women, it is characterized by a dramatic increase in the volume of the genital labia. When the initial infection manifests at the level of the anorectal region (anus and rectum), there may be eventual rectal complications including difficulty with defecation (bowel movements).
