Since the last few weeks my lips are super dry and peeling na, no matter how much water I drink. Never had this before pregnancy. Is this a normal thing or thoda concerning? anyone else facing same?
Wait, really? I didn't know dry lips was a pregnancy symptom. Is it because of the hormonal changes? I'm planning to conceive soon so trying to learn all these small things.
Increased blood volume and rapid hormonal shifts can dehydrate your skin very quickly during pregnancy. Try keeping yourself hydrated and use coconut oil, but do mention it to your gynac in your next checkup just to be sure your overall hydration is fine.
Ugh same, my lips are literally peeling off right now in my second trimester. Does any specific safe brand of lip balm help or should I just stick to regular vaseline?
Dry lips are actually super common because our bodies use up so much water for the baby. I had a normal delivery and remember applying ghar ka ghee or coconut oil constantly, it worked like magic!
That sounds a bit uncomfortable, hope u get relief. I read somewhere that applying milk cream or malai at night is very good for dry skin, maybe it is safe to try?
Having PCOS made me overanalyze every single symptom, but dry lips is honestly just dehydration. Keep sipping water throughout the day, but do ask your doctor if you feel too dry or dizzy.
