My Skin Is Very Dark Near My Butt And Inner Thighs

Hello Doctor, My skin is very dark near my butt and inner thighs compared to my rest of the body. It also has lot of stretch marks. I am going to get married in a years time and therefore you understand my problem. Since i have a year in hand can you suggest any remedy which can atleast make it less darker over time. My lifestyle is not very hard and fast. I do a 9 to 8 type of job and I m mostly in office whole day. I appreciate you help on this.

It may be because of continuously sitting for a long time and sweating or because of fungal infection.
Avoid polyester undergarments.Wear cotton undergarments.
If your skin is dry,apply moisturizing cream.
If you have itching ,you can apply any cream containing Vit.E and Aloe vera.
If your problem still persists,please meet a dermatologist.
Eat leafy vegetables and fruits more.
