Suggest Remedy For Pigmentation Problems

I am 58 years old, female, black race. Height : 5feet 3 inches. Six months ago the inner part of my lips started losing pigmentation; not they are very light in comparison to what they were before and it is spreading to the outer part of the lips. What is it?

HI
Well come to HCM
Most common cause of this pigmentation would be some allergic reaction and some drug would be the cause (if you are ever taking this) second because of the food this may be possible, in my opinion possibilities of these need to be ruled out, hemoglobin need to be tested some time anemia could be the cause, hope this information helps, take care.
