Patient's question:
The skin color of the external genitalia is particularly dark, very dark, very dark. Is this normal?Doctor's answer:
After puberty, this area of our body, whether male or female, gradually develops hyperpigmentation. Some people have it more noticeably, while others have it less so. The labia and external genital area up to the skin near the anus having a darker color is a normal phenomenon. Mature women's genital area naturally becomes hyperpigmented. Friction from walking can also cause hyperpigmentation, so there is no need to worry.
