Patient's question:
I am still a virgin, but the color of my private area is not even as pale as the palm or lips. Just looking at it alone is very disappointing, and it feels like a dirty color. I have to cover up when taking showers at the school's public bathhouse, and I don't want doctors or nurses to see it when I go for check-ups. I am very troubled and really want to know how to make my private area pink again.What kind of help do I need: How can a girl's dark labia become pink?
Doctor's answer:
Dark labia and virginity are not absolutely related. If a woman has clitoral rubbing syndrome, frequently consciously rubbing her legs to achieve sexual pleasure, or frequently masturbating, it can cause long-term labial congestion, leading to pigmentation and darkening of the labia. However, since she is only masturbating and not engaging in sexual activity, she can still be considered a virgin. Actually, it’s nothing serious. It could also be due to friction from clothing, which is why not all pink mulberries are virgins—black mulberries are exceptions. Moreover, many movies and media portray pink mulberries who are not virgins. Judging virginity by black or pink is a wrong idea. A girl’s dark labia cannot turn pink; this is related to sexual activity and hormones, and there is no way to change it. Nowadays, there are specialized stores for vaginal care where you can seek advice.
