My skin was always clear but since i got pregnant my face is breaking out badly. Is it the hormones doing this? matlab will it settle down later or stay like this?
My skin broke out like crazy in the first trimester! Along with clean eating and my regular prenatal yoga, I just drank lots of water. Keeping active helps with circulation, which also helps the skin heal naturally.
My dermatologist explained that the rise in progesterone levels stimulates your oil glands, causing clogged pores and pimples. She strictly told me to avoid salicylic acid and retinol creams during this phase as they are not safe for the baby.
Yes beta, I also got so many pimples during my pregnancy. Don't use any chemical creams on your face right now. Just wash your face with plain water or a little gram flour (besan), it will clear up on its own.
Of course it does, it's called pregnancy acne and it's totally normal. Stop touching your face and drinking too much tea or coffee. Keep your skin clean, drink water, and it will settle down.
Yes, absolutely. Hormones run wild during pregnancy, leading to excess sebum and breakouts. Don't worry, just stick to a gentle, fragrance-free cleanser and avoid using harsh chemical acne treatments without asking your doc.
Yes dear, it is very common due to hormonal changes. Try not to stress about it, as stress can make breakouts worse. It usually gets much better in the second trimester.
