Ive been struggling for the past 3 years with this severe darker tonality between my butt cheeks. Have conducted research for so much now Ive lost my mind into it, from not knowing whether it is Acanthosis nigricans or post inflammatory hyperpigmentation. It has never hurt or itched so therefore I dont know what this truly is & after do much years Im so tired of seeing this area such darker than my normal skin. Literally like 4 tones darker. Id greatly appreciate if I could receive solutions
My insulin level was 21 when the last number in the reference range was a 19. So it isn't too high. One doctor told me nothing, one said chafing (but i wear special shorts), and my obgyn said acanthosis nigrocins... i don't know what to do. How do I lighten this? I feel so ugly.
Hi, Im a25 YO female and Ive had dark inner thighs ever since I could remember. Been using hydroquinone4% for about a month now but not seeing any visibly different results. Could this be just hyperpigmentation or acanthosis nigricans? Are there any treatments I could use to get rid of this? Im willing to pay any amount to get rid of it. This issue has been crushing my self confidence for the longest time, I still have never worn a bathing suit to the beach. Thanks for your time
I'm suffering with acanthosis nigricans mainly in my neck area. I dont have any underlying illnesses linked to this condition, but Im losing weight on a low carb diet to help lower my insulin levels. Is there any cream/ remedy that could help reduce the darkness?
I was diagnosed with acanthosis nigricans (not sure) was told to test insulin level n thyroid levels but found to be normal... I have lot of dark patches in neck region.. Now my knuckles r getting darkened for past 6 months only... What would be the reason? Is this also due to acanthosis nigricans or it s sign of any other underlying problem? Note: I see this old on my left hand
i have a fair-light complexion (loreal w2 for reference) but my areolas are dark brown (sometimes almost black) while the actual nipple is pink, the skin on one side is thicker than on the other. I have acanthosis nigricans and I don't know if it has affected the area. Whether or not it has, I am not comfortable with this tone. I cant wear anything without a bra without having the dark circles see through the clothes. Is it possible to lighten their tone?
