White patch on areola

Hi everyone!
I'm 29 weeks pregnant and since week 27 I've noticed my areola being very itchy. When I looked, I noticed a dark pigmented area with surrounding white, dry skin. Dont know if it's something I should be concerned about? Anyone else have this during pregnancy... its quite itchy.ive attached an image... tmi I know! I've spoken to the midwife and she suspected fungal and gave me cream... been a week and it's still there.. getting worried tbh.

I would see your GP this week. Any breast changes like that should be seen by a GP even when we are pregnant. There are lots of side effects of being pregnant that cause all sorts of changes but always safest to get things checked out :)

Hi @123GirlMum I have the same thing. Curious to know if the GP was able to help diagnose this? I have the same issue and the GP said could be thrush but I don't have any other symptoms of thrush.
