White pubic hairs

[donchoyax1]

What could it be? the pubic hairs in my balls, "some" have some kind of white thing on them. they are not all covered only like the root, some a little more?

It's probably just part of your maturity process down there.

As long as they dont' itch, aren't swelling, or are painful...i'd just keep an eye on it.

Are you sexually active? Do you practice safe sex?

Do you shave your balls?

[the only name not taken]

I had some white hair on ym balls. I waited for about a month and they started to get darker now there the same color as the rest of my pubic hair

[donchoyax1]

Well they started comming out before I became sexually active. I do itch alot, well not that much but I would say I think not normal. each time I go to the bathroom I have the tendacy to scratch, inbetween my legs, on the side of my balls. and it becaomes like white. I dont shave them. and it does not hurt.

I don't think that they are anything to worry about, I have them too, but they don't itch or cause me any other discomfort, although I may trim them off soon.

If you're still going thru puberty, it could simply be new hair follicles being formed. As your doctor about them if the itching persists or they become inflamed.

[Paul]

Well, I am still going though pubery: being only 17!

But, these hairs are the same size (roughly) as the others... although simply white.

Nothing wrong with them, in the sense of hurting and itching etc...

[?wiseman?]

If it's just the pubic hairs themselves that are "white" I wouldn't worry about it.

[Paul]

I don't!
