Can be a normal finding.
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for trusting us with your health concern.
It is normal to have some darker discoloration of skin around the vagina. The discoloration should not be associated with any abnormal discharge, itching, redness, pain or increase in the area of discoloration. You can upload a picture also for a better evaluation in the box provided at the right hand side of this query page.
Please feel free to discuss further. I will be glad to answer the follow up queries that you have.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.
