Hi mam
I know its frustating to go through these changes after being very careful.
I dont see direct relation to these skin changes and your supplementation.
It seems more like metabolic syndrome.
Thyroid and cortisol being normal is ok but they dont give overview of your hormonal health.

Your symptoms need a systematic evaluation as normal thyroid and cortisol tests may not explain all these changes. Please book a consultation so we can review your reports, medications and symptoms and plan the appropriate next steps.

Weight gain and skin darkening after starting myo-inositol and D-chiro-inositol usually isn't from the supplements. It more often points to an underlying hormonal pattern such as PCOS or insulin resistance, which can also bring back acne even when your thyroid and cortisol are normal.
Next Steps
Ask for a fasting insulin and glucose test, an androgen panel, and a pelvic ultrasound. These checks will show whether PCOS or insulin resistance explains your weight and skin changes, and a velvety darkening like yours is often called acanthosis nigricans.
Health Tips
Please see a gynaecologist for the pelvic sensitivity and discomfort when you run, since that needs its own in-person check.
