Hi, i`m 14 yrs of age and lately i`ve been noticing a yellowish orange coating on my scrotum hair. Do you know what it is?

Can you give better explanation about the coating? What’s it like and where do you think it’s coming from because I have never heard of anything like that before. But maybe I could relate if you gave better explanation!

turns out this is it:

It's called trichomycosis axillaris - it's a bacterial infection, quickest thing to do is shave off the hairs and put on benzoyl peroxide to make sure it doesn't recur

Good luck!

Well, its technically trichomycosis pubis, and since some people really don't want to shave to prevent the infection from recurring, astringents can also be useful because it is much more likely to appear in areas that are kept moist (hyperhrdrosis).

A more detailed explanation of the condition is here:
