Anyone else have a large adam's apple? I am so self conscious of it and glad I dont wear cleavage blouses. I am usually glad when winter comes and I can wear turtle necks. Anyone else have this problem?? It seems most women's are hidden in feminine neck skin.

I guess it's only a myth that men have adam's apples? Sorry about your dilemna. I wonder if any other ladies have the same issue.
On Ruby last night, she said "I'm finally beginning to love myself."
It comes down to self acceptance or accept that you have options!!!

Are you sure you don't have a goiter? I'd get to a doctor.

It is not uncommon for women to have adams apples. People think only men have them because theirs are much more prominent.
Some women have larger ones and it's nothing to be embarrassed of. I have a long, skinny neck and when I lean my head back you can see it but otherwise it isn't noticable.
It doesn't bother me in the least. I love my neck.

Yes, all women have Adam's Apples! They usually aren't very prominent on women.

Women's larynx(voice box) is smaller and we typically carry more fat than men so it's hidden in most women. In some, it isn't.
Your thyroid gland is beneath the adam's apple anyway.
