My skin was always clear before but since i got pregnant my whole forehead and chin is breaking out badly. Im in my second trimester now. is it the hormones doing this? kind of upset because nothing is helping.
Yaar it's actually the hormone surge. My skin went haywire too. I just stopped all my fancy actives and used a mild cleanser. Pls dont use any acne medicine without checking with gynac, some are a no-no.
It's totally normal beta, your hormones are shifting and that triggers oil and pimples. Drink water, keep skin clean and dont stress. It usually calms down on its own after the first few months.
Blame the hormones, they are throwing a party on your face. Mine did the same, felt like a teenager again. It passes, just dont go raiding the medicine cabinet for acne stuff without asking doc.
It's hormones, plain and simple. They make your skin oilier so breakouts happen. Just keep it simple, gentle face wash, dont try strong acne creams without asking doc as some arent safe in pregnancy.
Oh I felt so bad about my skin in the first trimester, pimples everywhere. It's the hormones going crazy yaar. I felt better knowing it wasnt anything I did wrong, it settled down later for me.
