I'm really worried about the dark pigmentation on my inner thighs and around my vaginal area. I'm looking for ways to lighten it up. Could you recommend the best dermatologist creams, gels, or bleaches that might help? I've been feeling self-conscious about it and would really appreciate some guidance.

I'm dealing with a frustrating fungal infection near my groin area that's causing a lot of itching and has turned the skin black in that spot. It's been going on for about four months now. I've been using Terbinaforce for around 6 to 8 weeks, and I've also been applying candid powder in the morning and Clocip B cream at night. How long might it take to see some real improvement? Is there anything else I should be doing to help this heal?

It is likely a case of Tinea cruris, also known as jock itch. Terbinaforce is a good choice for treating fungal infections. It contains Terbinafine which is effective against various types of fungi. The usual dosage for Terbinaforce is to apply a thin layer on the affected area once daily for 2 to 4 weeks. Additionally, using Candid powder in the morning and Clocip B cream at night is a good combination for managing the symptoms. Candid powder contains Clotrimazole which is an antifungal agent, and Clocip B cream contains Clotrimazole and Beclomethasone which helps in reducing inflammation and itching. Continue this treatment regimen for the recommended 6 to 8 weeks for optimal results.

I'm 15 and I've been thinking about trying these glutathione 1500mg ivory caps for my skin. But I'm kinda worried about whether it's safe for someone my age. Also, I read somewhere that if you stop taking them, your skin won't go back to its original color. Is that true? Would really appreciate some advice on this.

true and you are too young to consume it consult your doctor
