    Its a melanosis and lots of women have them and they never give any problems at all. Some ladies dont even know they have a patch. They can be caused as a reaction to medication but not always. If you are in UK show your GP when you have a chance.

    I'm not sure if it would come under Gynae or Dermatology if you are in USA/Canada but I'm sure either would take a look.

    A biopsy may be taken but they are usually quite benign
