Your skin darkening could be a sign of insulin resistance syndrome, the condition is acanthosis nigricans, It makes the areas between your legs, armpits, neck, very dark.
Search the web for it to see if you have any other symptoms of Insulin Resistance also called metabolic syndrome .

Do you shave your armpits?, it will cause the area to get darker.

Whitening soap. Then there are creams and such for especially whitening underarm, but drug/department stores don't sell it here.
