My skin suddenly broke out badly this week and i havent even got my test confirmed properly. Wondering if pimples can be an early pregnancy sign. Anyone else got acne before they even knew?
With my PCOS, I was already prone to acne, and early pregnancy hormones definitely made it flare up. Don't use any strong acne creams without asking your doctor, keep it gentle.
Haan, acne is very common in early days. Just wash your face with mild soap, drink lots of water, and avoid using heavy creams or makeup for a few weeks.
Yes, hormonal surges cause excess sebum, leading to breakouts. Avoid over-the-counter salicylic acid or retinoids, and consult your dermatologist or gynac for safe alternatives.
My face broke out so badly in the first month, probably from all the spicy chaat and hormonal shifts! It's very common, so just enjoy your cravings and ignore the pimples.
My 'pregnancy glow' was just a face full of pimples in the first trimester! Now in my third trimester, I'm too tired to care about acne, it eventually settles down.
