Hi there
Understand your anxiety as regards this pigmentation issue
Note you don't appear to have a thyroid or PCOD problem
These are not the only conditions that cause pigmentation.
However a more detailed history of your personal, family, medical history etc together with some clear digital pics 📥 will help formulate a clear action plan for you.
It may have some genetic predisposition.
Pigmentation is commoner at the sites mentioned but can be lightened with minimal fuss and does not require glutathione and expensive meds in my humble opinion.
