I have developed brown spots on my stomach and back as a result of taking natural supplements after seeing a naturopath. I am also starting to take bio identical hormones - progesterone and estrogen from a compounding pharmacy. BI EST 1.25 ml cream. 40 mg progesterone capsule. Spots don t itch or anything, they are not raised.

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have symptoms of brown spots on the stomach and back. Well there can be many reasons for symptoms you mention in query like allergic reaction, result of sensitivity to sunlight, eczema, seborrheic dermatitis, impetigo or psoriasis. Need not to worry. You should consult dermatologist for proper examination. Doctor may prescribe immunosuppressants along with anti inflammatory or antibiotics. For now wash your arms and back with cold water and apply petroleum jelly on it, avoid any cosmetic product , prevent it from sun exposure or take antihistamine like benadryl . You should avoid exposure to sunlight. Also keep yourself hydrated.

Hope your concern has been resolved.
