Sometimes our body undergoes a lot of changes during this beautiful journey. While mild itching is normal, severe itching can sometimes need medical attention. Stay positive, keep chanting your prayers, and definitely visit your doctor to get it checked.
My saas told me to apply coconut oil or mustard oil for dry skin, which works for mild itching. But honestly, if your itching is very severe and persistent, it's not normal dry skin. Please check with your doctor because they might need to run some blood tests.
Ugh, the itching is so real, but if it is severe—especially on your palms and soles—please call your doctor immediately. It could be something called cholestasis which needs a doctor's attention. Don't just sit and scratch, get it checked!
Severe itching can actually be related to liver issues or hormonal changes like thyroid. When I had thyroid issues, I was told to monitor every symptom carefully. Please don't ignore this and get a proper checkup done by your doctor.
For basic stretching skin, a good moisturizer or calamine lotion works wonders. But severe itching, especially at night, can be a medical issue. Don't try home remedies for severe itching; just go to your clinic and let the doctor check it.
I have heard from my sisters that minor stretching causes mild itching, but if it is very severe, please be careful. It might be better to ask your gynecologist about it soon. Take care of yourself.
