Dark under arms?

Question

I don't know if anyone else has experienced this or if it's even because of pregnancy. But lately I've been noticing that my underarms are becoming significantly darker and I really don't like it. Does anyone know why this is or how to make them lighter again?

Answer

My skin on my neck got really dark. It goes away after baby

Answer

Usually goes away once the baby is born.

Answer

It's from insulin resistance caused by pregnancy. It'll go away don't worry 😄

Answer

Mine too....it's normal..goes aways after delivery...

Answer

Mine are the same...its just hormones & will go back to normal after baby is here...not sure how long after baby is born but it's not permanent

Answer

Yup, I shave with coconut oil (all natural). It lightens them if you let the oil sit for a few minutes after you shave.

Answer

Yeah dark arm pits down to the skin on my boobs. Hoping it goes away. This didn't happen with my 2 previous pregnancies. 😬

Answer

Just hormones. It'll go away eventually.

Answer

Mine have done this too. It's normal. It'll go back to normal after baby is born
