Have you observed brown patches around your body? Do you feel self-conscious from these patches? Folks, you might have developed a common skin disorder called Melasma.  

In this condition, the skin develops dark, discoloured patches. It is also called the ‘mark of pregnancy’ as pregnant women are frequently observed to develop discoloured patches during the carrying period.   

These patches are brown or grey-brown, darker than the original skin colour and are usually observed in; cheeks, forehead, bridges of the nose, upper lips, & chin. It is also observed in the neck and forearms.   

The causes of Melasma are not entirely clear, though dark-skinned individuals have been observed to be at risk than fair-skinned individuals. Research shows that women are more prone to develop Melasma than men though men too have the possibility of getting the condition. Estrogen and progesterone sensitivity is known to cause Melasma, and hence, birth control pills & hormone therapy all pose a risk to trigger Melasma. Ultraviolet rays are also one of the chief factors to cause the darkening of the skin in the form of patches.
