What causes male pubic hair to turn white?

The whitening of male pubic hair may be caused by the decrease in melanin secretion. Generally, when men are over 40 years old, the pigment will gradually decrease, and some hair will turn gray. This is also a normal phenomenon, but don’t worry too much. You can take some Chinese medicine for conditioning, or drink Polygonum multiflorum tea. You should also pay more attention to rest and eat some black foods, such as black rice, black beans, black sesame seeds, etc.

Based on the analysis and judgment of most doctors, the main reasons are as follows;

1 It may be caused by endocrine disorders and premature aging. On the other hand, it may be nutritional, mental factors, systemic diseases and some albinism, and the pathogenesis is related to the lack of melanin in the skin.

2 This situation is probably related to fatigue, lack of rest, mental stress, lack of trace elements and picky eating. It is recommended to eat more black sesame products, adjust the diet structure, and eat more beans and vegetables. Spinach, potatoes, animal offal and other copper-rich foods may also help.

3 Generally, when people reach their 40s, the tyrosinase activity of the pigment cells in the hair follicles gradually weakens, and the pigment in the hair shafts also gradually decreases, resulting in the phenomenon of gray hair. The gradual graying of hair in older people is a physiological phenomenon, so it is called "physiological graying of hair." You can observe yourself to see if you have white hair for a long time. In any case, the graying of pubic hair is not a disease, but a normal physiological phenomenon. So don't worry.

4 You can take some Chinese medicine appropriately, such as Liuwei Dihuang Pills which nourish yin and tonify the kidney, or you can drink Shouwu tea.

5. If there are local skin changes, be aware of the possibility of vitiligo.
