Dark UnderArms (armpits)

[foreverestsg]

MTBs,

anyone have the same problem as me???
since my pregnancy, I realised that my under arms have become very dark. Despite intensive scrubbing and use of Nivea (whitening prdts) the condition does not seem to improve. Wonder will it be back to normal after I give birth . Nowadays I hardly dare to wear sleeveless tops *sobs*

Yep mine too during pregnancy. I used loads of body scrub but only managed to lighten it a bit. But after pregancy, it will fade.

I had this problem for my previous pregnancies. The dark patch will start to disappear after confinement but for it to be totally gone, it took a few mths.

Sad to say me!!me!! Wen I wuz preg with my boy, armpits darken, neck like I never bath like dat (yucks!!), skin very dry, then there were marks on my hands & feet... me look very shag. Luckily after deliver, its all cleared now.. wheeww.. heard old ppl say if carrying boy, will have dis kind of symptoms. If gal, mum will love to doll herself up... dunno true or not.
