What Causes Vagina To Look Ashy And Wrinkly?

I am african american but my skin tone is a caramel brown. My vagina looks ashy, wrinkly and like grey and im trying to figure out why? I usually see the ash when i shaved so i figured it was dry skin. But it just doesnt look good. What is it? Is it normal? And how can i fix it?

Hello ma'am and welcome.

The first thing is to stop shaving and further irritating your genital region. Next, take an appointment to visit your doctor and get yourself examined. Any such presentation requires both a physical examination and laboratory examination of the affected region. Without these, establishing a diagnosis and accordingly treating is almost impossible.

Hope this helps.

Best wishes.
