A. Even though you’ve delivered, your hormones don't reset overnight. It can take several months for levels to stabilize. If you are breastfeeding, those hormonal shifts continue, which can keep the pigment darker for longer. Vitamin C: An antioxidant that naturally brightens and protects skin from further darkening. Niacinamide (Vitamin B3): Helps even out skin tone and strengthens the skin barrier.

Jasmine KaurMom of a 9 yr 10 m old boy2 weeks ago

A. Hello dear parent, since you are pregnant, I would not suggest you to use any chemical based cream to lighten the areas. You ca use home remedies like rubbing tomato or banana peel on the areas to get rid of dark spots.
