The natural color of these is slightly darker than the rest of the body.If they are excessively dark then it can be due to hyperpigmentation of the skin. This darkening occurs when an excess of melanin, the brown pigment that produces normal skin color, forms deposits in the skin.
Although various skin ligtening creams are available,but they should be sued with caution on the thinskin of the genitalia.Laser treatment can help a bit.
Pls discuss these options with your dermatologist before using them.Also get the possibility of acanthosis nigricans ruled out.
Hope it helps.Take care and pls do keep me posted on how you are doing or if you have any additional queries.Warm regards.
