00:00Spotted tiny white dots down there?

00:02Don't panic just yet.

00:03It might not be what you think.

00:05They're called Fordyce spots, and get this, 80% of people have them.

00:09They're totally harmless, not an STD, and you can't catch or pass them on.

00:14Named after a doctor way back in 1896, these spots are just enlarged oil glands.

00:19They usually pop up after puberty, thanks to hormones turning up the volume.

00:24But here's the catch.

00:25Dr. Andrew Hart-Pinto warns that new spots could mimic early signs of some STIs.

00:30So if you suddenly notice unfamiliar white spots on your privates, it's smart to get them checked.

00:35Better safe than sorry, right?

00:37Also, never pick or squeeze them.

00:40Doing that can leave scars or cause infections.

00:43If they really bother you, treatments like laser or micropunch surgery are available.

00:47But the best first step?

00:49Let a doctor take a look, because peace of mind is just one appointment away.
