Dark Underarm

Hi mommies, do you experience dark pigmented underarms during pregnancy and post? I googled and realised its normal due to the hormonal changes but what can I do to lighten the pigment? Will it eventually go away completely?

Yass!!! It is so ugly. I am now pregnant have the dark patch on my armpits, even on my neck. But my sister said it will go away after give birth. :(((

Got to experience that also, after I gave birth it got back to normal, though not in instant.. it’s like 2-3 months after,

This is a normal reaction for many pregnant women. Your armpits will get back to normal Color after you give birth

Ya it's damn ugly. I had it while I was pregnant. Now almost 3 months after birth, it's gotten lighter.

I got it too :( My gynae said I may need surgery cos is like additional milk duct......

Same for my 2 pregnancies. Dont worry about it cause it will fade away eventually.

Hey, This is normal experience during pregnancy and the color will fade eventually

It will eventually go away after you gave birth.
