Confirm safety: Before applying this cream to your genitals you need to confirm with the pharmacist that it is safe to do so. Skin reacts differently than mucosal tissues. If you have darkening of the vulva then you should also ask your doctor to look at it. Acanthosis nigricans is a discoloration that can occur and may indicate diabetes or pre diabetes.
