Acanthosis nigricans: See a gynacologist endocrinologist. You may have pcos. Once under treatment for your gynacological condition your skin condition will slowly get better.

Not much: But should follow a low carbohydrate diet because diabetes is frequent. Use metformin when fertility is an issue.
