Does coconut oil help stretch marks during pregnancy?
Im in my 5th month and starting to see faint lines on my pet. My mom swears by coconut oil malish. Does it really help or do i need something else? Curious what worked for u all.
Honestly, my tracker app said stretch marks are mostly genetic, but keeping the skin hydrated definitely helps with the itching. Coconut oil is great, or you can use bio oil. Start applying early, twice a day.
Let's be real, no oil can completely stop stretch marks if your skin is prone to them. But coconut oil is the cheapest and most effective way to keep the skin moisturized. Use it right after your shower for best results.
Coconut oil is very safe and moisturizing, but do check with your doctor if you have any skin allergies or severe itching. I had some severe rashes and my doctor had to give me a specific cream. Always better to ask them.
Yes, coconut oil is very gentle and safe to use. I preferred organic cold-pressed oil because it has no chemicals. Please take care of yourself, hope you have a beautiful journey ahead.
I've heard from my elder sisters that organic coconut oil is the best option because it's completely natural. I am planning to try soon and will definitely use this. Good luck to you.
Honestly, I bathed in coconut oil and still got stretch marks, my belly looks like a zebra crossing now haha! But it definitely stops the crazy itching. Just use it for relief, don't expect miracles!
