I have been noticing white flakes around my private area at the roots of the hair.
They come back after I shower (when I dry up)
I had only one partner but he has had many others before
Im scared this might be some std or smthn

It could simply just be dry skin or dandruff. Find something cream in the pharmacy at your grocery store and see if that helps. The only STD that could even be wouldn't technically be an std is lice like crabs. I imagine you've checked yourself out pretty thoroughly and you would have noticed lice. But I think it is simply dry skin which can be itchy and annoying.
