Never had dandruff before but suddenly my scalp is so flaky and itchy these days, im around 5 months. Is this a pregnancy thing or just dry weather? anyone else noticed this?
Omg, yes! I'm in my second trimester and my scalp has been so itchy and flaky lately, I was wondering if it's just me. Is it really common? I've been trying different mild shampoos, but it's still there. Did anyone else experience this too?
I felt like my skin and hair completely changed during pregnancy. My scalp got so dry and itchy, and yes, dandruff became a problem for me too. It was definitely the hormones. It mostly settled down after delivery, but during pregnancy, it was quite annoying!
In my experience, my hair actually got really thick and shiny during pregnancy, but my sister, she had a lot of issues with dandruff and dry scalp. So it really varies from person to person, I guess it depends on how your hormones react. Just try a mild shampoo and see if that helps.
Haha, is anything *not* common during pregnancy? Your body becomes a science experiment! Dandruff is just one of those fun side effects probably due to hormones making your scalp confused. Don't fret, just try a gentle anti-dandruff shampoo, and know you're not alone in the flaky scalp club!
Dandruff? Really? I was busy thinking about my next snack! Haha, but yeah, my hair has been acting weird too. More oily sometimes, then dry. Probably just those crazy pregnancy hormones doing their dance. Just keep your hair clean and happy!
Yes, it can be quite common due to all the hormonal changes your body goes through. You can try some gentle home remedies like applying curd or aloe vera on your scalp. But if it's very severe, itchy, or causing a lot of discomfort, it's a good idea to mention it to your gynac. They might suggest a medicated shampoo that's safe for pregnancy.
My saas told me ki pregnancy mein sab kuch badalta hai, even your hair and skin! So haan, dandruff is quite common. She made me use neem oil. It helps to keep your scalp clean and use a mild, gentle shampoo. Don't worry too much about it.
Haan beta, dandruff toh bahut logon ko ho jaati hai pregnancy mein. Hormones change hote hain na. Mere saath bhi hua tha. Bas mild shampoo use karo aur oiling karte raho. Tension mat lo, choti si baat hai.
Oh, really? I didn't know this was a thing. I'm just planning pregnancy now, so this is good to know. Does it affect hairfall too? It sounds a bit worrying.
Oh wow, is it? I was just thinking about all the weird body changes during pregnancy, and dandruff never crossed my mind. What causes it? Is it just hormones or something else? I guess it's another thing to prepare for!
