My face has suddenly broken out so badly this week and period is also near. Cant tell if its PMS or maybe something more. Anyone able to tell the difference?
I got terrible breakouts right before my positive test and thought my periods were coming! Did anyone else get major pimples in their first trimester too? I'm still dealing with them.
Hormones can definitely cause breakouts in both cases! For me, a clean diet and light yoga, which my doctor allowed, helped balance things out. Keep your skin clean and hydrated.
I am also trying to conceive and keep looking for such signs. Sometimes it's hard to tell because hormonal changes before periods and early pregnancy feel so similar. Hope it is good news for you.
I tracked all my symptoms on an app, and honestly, pimples can happen in both due to progesterone spike. The only way to know for sure is to wait and take a test after your missed period.
Mummy always says pregnancy glow is a myth for some, haha! In my case, I got pimples just like my usual periods. You really can't tell the difference until you miss your date.
