NCI: Usually found in girls between 6 months and 6 years of age, this condition occurs wherein the labia grow together instead of as 2 separate folds, thereby blocking the opening of the vagina. It is caused by conditions such as repeated diaper rash, urine and stool infections, and sexual abuse. The condition often spontaneously corrects or responds to the application of estrogen cream.
