What Causes Dark Skin On Neck During Pregnancy?

Hi doctor, I am a 27-year-old female, and I am 27 weeks pregnant. Over the past one month, the skin around my neck has gone very dark, can you explain me the reason for this and also tell me if it will subside after my delivery. I am 5 feet tall and my weight currently is 72 kg.
