My underarms got really dark during pregnancy and even now after delivery they havent gone back. Its making me self conscious in sleeveless. Did anything work for you ladies?
I noticed this after delivery too and felt self conscious honestly. But a kind friend told me its temporary and it really did lighten over time. Be patient with your body, it just did something amazing.
I gently rubbed a little curd or aloe and kept the area moisturised, it slowly improved. Pigmentation from hormones usually settles by itself. If it doesnt fade in months, see a dermatologist.
A lot of that darkening is from pregnancy hormones and it fades on its own over months. Gentle exfoliation and keeping the area dry helps. Dont use harsh bleaches, especially while breastfeeding, ask a dermat if it really bothers you.
