A member asked:
My linea nigra had faded a couple months after i gave birth its starting to darken and get thicker what does that mean?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Hard to say: If u ovulate irregularly u may have high testosterone and elevated insulin. Otherwise it is difficult to determine especially if it's the only place that is getting darker. Good luck, but doesn't sound like a disease process, wt gain can be correllated with high Insulin and darkening pigment.
