Question : A couple months ago I noticed 3 spots that look like freckles on my pubic area where the hair grows no pain no discharge
Brief Answer:
Possibly caused by ingrown hair or shaving.
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
If they were small dots like freckles, with no pain or discharge on the pubic area where hair grows I think they are not dangerous.
They don't show about sexually transmitted diseases.
They can be created because of ingrown hair or because of shaving.
Also they have been there for about a month without changing or being a bigger problem so you don't have to worry about them.
Hope I have answered the question.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
Thanks.

Detailed Answer:
Hello dear and thank you for asking again.
Taking count that there is no pain or discharge I believe that it isn't something serious like an STD. I want to see a picture to have a better idea about them and what may be a cause of appearing 5 more.
You can upload a photo later.
