Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
The reasons for pigmentation in the pubic area and inner thighs are:
1) hormonal changes
2) constant friction in these areas due to walking
3) sudden weight gain which in turn increases the friction
4) dry skin
5) hereditary
In my clinic, I suggest patients to do gentle skin polishing followed by a deep chemical peel (which is totally safe on the skin) at least once in 15 days for at least 8 to 10 times to see a good result. In home care the patients are advised to use mild moisturising soap and deep body moisturisers three times a day in the concerned areas.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Smruti Pevekar
