It sounds like a birth mark. I have that on one elbow.

It sounds to me like what people refer to as a Birth Mark. My niece had a large one on the left side of her face. The mark faded a great deal after her periods started (some change in hormone levels, I guess), but it was still visible. By that time my brother had complete health coverage insurance, and a dermatologist was able to remove the mark completely with (1) a series of sub-cutaneous injections over a period of several weeks and (2) Laser treatment to clear up the few small spots which were left.

See a dermatologist. That's a medical doctor. I've found these people to be very useful--- much better than Yahoo! Answers, and they specialize in your condition.. It's cheaper to understand the problem, and deal with it now, than to worry about it the rest of your life.

In a way it sounds like a birth mark. Use toner to even out your skin color, but your in luck winter's coming so get out the ling sleeves!!!
Wish you luck :)

No, i'm guessing the "fat" you're speaking approximately is your hymen. And the colour might desire to be favourite as long because it incredibly is often been like that, and it does not harm or exchange in any respect. once you're incredibly apprehensive, pass to a girl well being care expert. <3

There are skin lightening creams available for that condition (hyperpigmentation). If you are very concerned about it, you should go to the dermatologist.

Do you have it on your face at all? It sounds like melasma. Make an appointment with a derm, they can prescribe a cream that will help with fading.

Winter is here so it won't be as noticable. And it's really no big deal. I have freckles on my face so it's not like I have just one color. It's whats on the inside that counts. Good luck and God Bless. ♥

its probably genetic, it just means that somewhere, way back, you had an ancestor who was mediterranian, native american, chinese or black. One of my grandsons has a mark like that along his spine at the buttocks. we always kept wiping at it when he was little because we thought it was poop.
