Dark blotchy skin around pubic area (picture included)

[Nobody11]

Hey, I've been aware of this for a few years now but am not entirely sure when I first noticed it (I have a terrible memory). I basically have patches on the public area which are of a slightly darker but noticeable colour to the rest of my skin, are there any ideas on what this might be? I normally let my pubic hair grow a certain length in an effort to make the patches less noticeable.

I've don't have any symptoms other than what you can see, but have also noticed that my skin is drier where the skin is darker.

If you need any questions to help with a diagnosis please feel free to shoot.
