reader, anonymous, writes (5 June 2007): Yes, moles are very, very common. Most of us have them. Like the other Aunts have stated, all moles have to be removed, surgically, under a doctors supervision. If you have concerns about being embarrassed, I suggest you talk to your Mom and have her support you emotionally through this process. Let her know how you truely feel about allowing a doctor to see these moles. Have her come with you to the doctor. Most women are a lot more comfortable with female doctors. She can even be in the examining room with you, but they will cover you with a sheet so she won't see anything. They should then refer you to a dermatologist. Would it be more comfortable to request a female doctor? Then ask for that. Let your Mom know, that is what you want. She will help you. And try to really, really understand, hun--doctors are trained to see all body parts of every shape, size and color. It's purely 'medical' to them and they see this everyday. Word of caution: Never, ever try anything to remove them on your own. All moles must be excised by a doctor, dear. You may feel nervous qabout having this done but that beats a future lifetime of being self-concious and unhappy with something you don't like. And especially, when these moles can be removed quite easily. Good luck, dear and be brave.

i too am scared about what boys think about it. i cant wear shorts because of mine. and i cant wear bathing suits because of it. you should probably atleast have them looked at by a doctor to see if they could be pre-cancerous and maybe then ask how do i get them removed.
