     There is a whole rainbow of colours that vulvas can be. Yours will be unique to you, at the same time as being perfectly normal.

     However, if you notice any unexplained changes to the colour of your vulva, or patches of discolouration, speak to a medical professional. Remember to look at your vulva in a mirror from time to time!

     Certain life events can cause the vulva to change colour. At puberty, the labia often become darker than surrounding skin. At menopause, the vulva may become darker or paler due to hormone changes. Medication that affects hormones may also change the colour.

     During pregnancy, labia may become darker, and sometimes take on a bluish or purple-ish tone, due to hormones affecting blood flow to the vulva.

     As well as varying in colour between labia majora and minora, and various relationships to surrounding skin, some vulvas may more parts in different colours - such as hood and labia minora being different, or darker tips to the labia minora.

     Sometimes the labia majora will be a noticeably darker colour than the surrounding skin.

     Sometimes the skin of the vulva on the labia majora (outer lips) and labia minora (inner lips) is a very similar colour to the surrounding skin of the thighs.

     Vulvas come in a lot of different colours. A vulva isn't always the same colour as the surrounding skin, and while the colour of the vulva is slightly related to overall skin tone, it's not always the same colour at all!

     Pinks, purples, peach, browns and even close to black are perfectly normal colours for a vulva to be.
