Getting these painful boils on my skin suddenly and im in my tww. never had them before so just wondering if hormones could be the reason. probably overthinking but cant help it.
Haha, I got all sorts of random skin issues, but a boil was definitely not on my pregnancy symptom bingo card! Between waking up every 2 hours to feed, I barely have time to notice my skin now, but a simple home pregnancy test is way more accurate than checking for boils!
I am trying to conceive too and tracking every tiny change in my body! While hormone changes can cause skin breakouts, I don't think a boil is a direct sign of pregnancy. Let's stay positive and wait for the test day!
Nahi re, boil is not a sign of pregnancy. It's just a normal skin infection or heat bump due to weather or friction. Don't connect every little body change to pregnancy, just take a proper test if your period is late.
Boils are usually just heat bumps or due to skin friction, not a reliable sign of pregnancy. You can apply a little organic turmeric paste or a cold compress to soothe it, but if it starts swelling badly or is very painful, please consult a doctor.
Honestly, with PCOS we get acne and boils quite often due to high androgen levels or insulin issues, so it might not be a pregnancy symptom at all. Better to wait for a missed period and take a pregnancy test to be absolutely sure.
