What Causes Small, Light Skin Coloured Spots Above Clitoris?
I have small, light skin coloured spots above my clit and around the side of my virgina. They re only clearly visible when skin is stretched/ pulled tight. The don t ever itch or irritate me they re never red or cause discharge. I have had unprotected sex but my other half has not ever mentioned anything. I m not sure if I ve always had these as I ve never really looked before. I have seen other women say it is normal, but I wanted to make sure it s nothing serious.

Hello,
You have small, light colored spots above the clitoris. They are neither itchy nor cause discharge. Since the skin above the clitoris is neither dry not itchy or flaky, it is not indicative of any infection. However, take care of your hygiene. Wear soft , loose fitting cotton clothes. Do not use harsh chemical products or beauty products that are not herbal.
Be careful while shaving as it may cause infection due to ingrown hair or rash, discomfort or spots/bumps around the area. Sometimes, blocked glands may cause such colored spots but they require no treatment just keep your private area clean. Get clinically examined by a Gynae to detect genital warts, which require to be treated. Stay away from addictions if any.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
