However, this could be something more serious. Dark underarms can be a symptom of diabetes. If it runs in your family, you may want to go to a doctor to get it checked out. [ ConfusedX2's advice column | Ask ConfusedX2 A Question ]

Try waxing, at first it is quite painful but gradually it will be more comfortable. Also try putting on a mixture of apple and lemon juice (Fresh not store bought) and apply onto your armpits for about ten minutes a day for as long as you want. It should help. Also don't use hair removal products! Hope I helped. :) [ Isabel13's advice column | Ask Isabel13 A Question ]
