I have had psoriasis for years and it was thoda under control. Now im pregnant and the patches are getting worse again. Does pregnancy do this or its something else? anyone with same issue?
Carrying twins already made my skin stretch to its limits, and the dry itchy patches didn't help at all! Yes, flares can happen. Just moisturize like your life depends on it and avoid hot showers.
Yes, skin changes are very common because of immunity shifts. Just stay positive and keep your skin hydrated. It usually settles down postpartum, so try not to stress too much about it right now.
Oh my god, my skin has suddenly broken out in dry, itchy patches in my 5th month! I am so anxious about what creams are safe to use. Is anyone else facing skin flare-ups like this right now?
Actually, while some women see improvement, about 10-20% experience a worsening of psoriasis during pregnancy. My dermatologist told me that many standard psoriasis medications are not safe during pregnancy, so a doctor must review your treatment plan immediately.
I had severe skin itchiness and redness during my second trimester. I only used cold-pressed coconut oil and wore loose cotton clothes, which helped me personally. I didn't take any medicines without my doctor's green light.
Yes, hormonal changes can trigger a flare-up. Applying pure coconut oil or aloe vera gel can help soothe the itching naturally. But if the skin gets cracked, bleeds, or is very painful, please ask your doctor before using any medicated creams.
Haan, pregnancy me sharir me bahut badlav aate hain jis se skin dry aur khujli wali ho jati hai. Humare ghar pe dadi kehti thi nariyal tel lagane ko. Apne doctor ko dikha lo woh sabse achha batayenge.
