How to remove pigmentation on neck during pregnancy?
My neck has gone so dark since i got pregnant, almost looks like a black patch and im a bit conscious about it. Im 6 months now. Did anyone find something safe that actually helped? dont want to use anything harmful on baby.
My gynac said this is melasma type pigmentation from hormones and to avoid bleaching or strong skin acids during pregnancy. She advised gentle cleansing and sunscreen, since sun makes it worse. It typically fades months after delivery, so be patient with it.
Beta, this darkening is normal in pregnancy, dont worry. A gentle besan and curd or a little malai can be used softly, nothing harsh. It usually lightens by itself after baby comes. For strong creams, always ask the doctor first.
My neck darkened during pregnancy and I felt a bit low about it honestly. My doctor said its hormonal and very common, and it fades on its own after delivery. I just kept the area clean and moisturised, didnt use any harsh stuff.
