Title: Random little brown marks on skin
Post by: Julia45 on July 05, 2020, 07:33:01 PM

Evening all,
I have noticed over the last few months that I have small, little flat brown marks (two on skin in groin and one under arm) which have appeared on skin. Almost like a tiny little bruise. Painless and sometimes look slightly fainter than others. Dr not at all concerned. Another hormone symptom of peri? Could be what they call age spots? I'm only 45, lol. X

Old age spots  ::) ....... a change in mellolin ?  [sp].  I have them all over my hands, some are slightly raised.  As well as skin tags which I hate  :-\. 

Time to get a good quality hand lotion or sun tan cream to use regularly.

Thanks for your reply; much appreciated. it's weird how they are in the pale skin on top of my inner thighs...one each side! Yes, lotions and potions need to be bought.   ::)

Morning

As oestrogen levels drop skin may become dry  ::) so a good quality cream is soothing.
