Discoloration Spots on Face
Did anyone else get these? It kind of looks like a sun spot, but I am sure it is pregnancy related. I have this big darkened spot/patch on my left cheek and was just wondering if it might go away after the pregnancy.

Discoloration Spots on Face
*crashing*
It may be melasma. I got a patch when I was pregnant on my forehead. It went away, but every time I get tan, it comes back. My derm is giving me a cream to fade it for good, but I'm TTC, so I'm going to wait.

Re: Discoloration Spots on Face
Sounds like melasma. It's pregnancy-related from all the change in hormones in your body. It will eventually fade after pregnancy.
The sun makes it worse (darker) and it will take longer to fade, so try to avoid the sun as much as possible and wear strong sunblock on your face!
