Im in my second month and suddenly my whole forehead has broken out, never had this much acne even in college. Is it the hormones doing this or something else? My skin was always clear before, so im a little confused.
Yep, my app literally had a whole section on pregnancy acne. It's the rise in hormones increasing oil. Stick to gentle products and ask your doc before using anything with salicylic acid or retinol, those need checking.
Oh yes! My whole forehead broke out in the first trimester and I felt so bad, I never had skin like that even as a teen. It calmed down by month 5 for me. It's just the hormones doing their thing.
Haan it happens, hormones change a lot na. My amma told me to just wash face with plain water often and not touch it too much. Worked slowly for me. Nothing to worry about.
Totally normal yaar. Both my pregnancies my chin got those big painful ones. Just keep face clean with mild face wash, dont start any new acne cream without asking gynac, some are not safe in pregnancy.
