Why is the vagina too dark?

When all females are born, their genitals are tender pink, but with the secretion of female hormones in the body during puberty, pubic hair will gradually grow on the genitals, and the color of the genitals will also develop towards a darker color. Especially for women who have had sex, their genitals are generally much darker in color than those of women who have not had sex, and some women even have black genitals. So what's going on when a woman's pubic area is too dark?

1. Excessive sexual activity

The darkening of the private parts is also related to excessive friction of the private skin, especially for girls who have frequent sex, the color of the private parts will be darker or even black. Therefore, if you want to prevent your private parts from becoming too dark, it is recommended to have a proper sex life.

2. Inappropriate clothing

Improper dressing can also cause women's private parts to darken, such as wearing thongs, tights, and some non-breathable pants, which can easily make the private parts darker. Therefore, it is recommended to wear slightly looser and more breathable pants.

3. Genetic factors

The dark color of girls' private parts is mainly determined by genetic factors, because genetic factors determine skin color, and the depth of skin color is related to melanin. Therefore, even if some female friends have not had sex and have never been pregnant, their private parts are dark. This condition is innate.

4. Pigment accumulation

The dark color of girls' private parts is related to the accumulation of pigments. Therefore, when many girls are young, the color of their private parts is similar to their skin color. As they age, more and more melanin accumulates in their private parts, and the color becomes darker. Moreover, people with light skin have lighter private parts, while people with darker skin have darker private parts.
