Brown patches of skin on both sides of inner thigh

Body: 

I wasn't sure if weight from the proalpse caused it or if it's normal to have this. I noticed it this morning after taking a shower. I went to see the gynocologist last week. Wouldn't he has said something if it was something serious? I'm getting worried.

did you point it out to the gyno? its possible he didn't notice it. I have brown patches here there and everywhere from pg's, but I did double check with a dermatologist to set my mind at ease.
its probably nothing more than friction, but I'd check it out to be 100% sure

Hi Allysp,

A few thoughts. Oral contraceptives can cause brown pigmentation, the same as pregnancies. Not sure about the inner thighs though?

Could it also be chafing? Not sure about your skin type.

See if you have it anywhere else too.

Did you actually ask the gyno specifically about it? If not, and you are worried, perhaps you should, and remember to be quite specific when you ask.

It may even be a family doctor question. Ask whoever you trust the most.

Good luck.
