This might result in the formation of black areas on the skin, particularly the underarms. Hormonal changes, such as those seen during pregnancy or when using birth control pills, can also result in underarm pigmentation. Underarm pigmentation can also be caused by friction or rubbing when the skin is touched or irritated regularly; melanin production increases, forming dark patches. Skin irritations or infections can also cause underarm pigmentation. The body may create more melanin if the skin is frequently irritated or inflamed to protect itself. Allergic responses can also cause underarm pigmentation. If a person is allergic to a certain substance, their body may manufacture more melanin to protect itself.
