I am a 20 year old mother of two small children. Ever since I had my last baby I've had severe skin pigmentation in different areas including around my neck, armpits, and especially my inner thigh. It is very embarrasing especially with summer here, I cannot enjoy wearing shorts because of the dark areas on my inner thighs. I've talked to my doctor and didn't help. I've tried bleaching creams but failed....I feel like I am missing out on alot because of this, not to mention that I dont even wear my hair up...does any one have a solution? I am so desperate that Im thinking laser but it is very costly!

You said your doctor didn't help but was this a dermatologist? If not, I suggest you see a dermatologist. As you discovered, over the counter bleaches are either worthless or can cause great harm. Please see a dermatologist who can recommend the proper treatment based on the degree of pigmentation, location of it, possible cause of it and also based on your skin. Having someone who deals with this type of problem will result in a much better solution. You may find that laser treatment is not your only option.
