A. Avoid using any products around your private areas to remove pigmentation include more fruits in duet and drink two to three litres if water in a day and take good sleep

A. Different women have different experiences and yes hyper pigmentation can be seen with some women and it does not get sorted on its own even after delivering most of the cases so since you’re pregnant I cannot recommend the products to use because it wouldn’t be safe so better to check with a dermatologist they can advise you with the pharmacy based products which would be more suitable for you right now
