Your skin pigmentation is likely acanthosis nigricans, a skin condition associated with PCOD (polycystic ovarian disease) that arises from insulin resistance. Managing PCOD through lifestyle changes, such as a healthy diet, regular exercise, and weight management, along with any hormonal treatments prescribed by your doctor, may help. To improve pigmentation itself, a dermatologist may suggest topical creams such as hydroquinone, azelaic acid, or retinoids, or other treatments depending on severity. Consistently using sunscreen is also important to prevent it from worsening.
