Why Is Your Penis A Different Color To The Rest Of Your Body? January 14, 2016 | by Tom Hale  Photo credit: Artography/Shutterstock
It’s a question even the most brave and crude would struggle to type into Yahoo! Answers: Why is it our genitals and nipples are darker than the rest of our skin? Speaking to the Daily Mail Online, Dr. Cameron Rokhsar and Dr. Lindsey Bordone – both dermatologists based in New York – answered this age-old question.
“Hormones regulate the way melanocytes produce their pigment," said Dr. Rokhsar. "Those can have an effect on the way the skin in that area pigments, so generally that area is darker."
“When girls are young, their nipples are light,” Dr. Bordone added. “And as they get older, hormones have an effect and the nipples darken.
“It’s very similar for boys.”
This is also the reason why so many kids have fair hair, yet grow up to have darker locks.
According to Dr. Bordone, although dark sexy bits are usually a normal characterstic, a change in color could be a sign of health problems, such as diabetes. “Your skin can darken in certain areas when your sugars are very high – and you’re developing diabetes,” she said. Chances are it's nothing to worry about, but if you’re unsure you should consult your doctor.
