Brief Answer:
Can you upload some images please?
Detailed Answer:
I understand your concern but this is something which may need visual inspection. I request you to upload some images of what you are describing. I would also like you to tell me if the skin in her armpits and the genital area are more darker than the usual complexion.

As you had asked, her skin in the armpit and genital area are not very dark the usual complexion. Her genital area is fine . Skin under the armpit is slightly darker nothing unusual though
I will attach the pics of the hair as you had asked. Let me know if you got it

Brief Answer:
I have seen the images nothing to worry
Detailed Answer:
Hello, I have seen the images and thank you for the information that the skin is not very dark in those areas.
I am glad to assure that there is nothing serious to worry about here and I feel this here is completely physiological.
Initially I had considered congenital adrenal hyperplasia but I do not think so after seeing the images.

Brief Answer:
Minoxidil and breastfeeding
Detailed Answer:
Because of the minimal amount of information on this potent agent, use minoxidil with caution, particularly when therapy involves a large maternal dosage or breastfeeding a newborn.
But - Topical minoxidil should pose low risk to the breastfed baby.
