Pregnancy
Acne: Causes and Prevention
Pregnancy acne can specifically occur on women during
the time of pregnancy. This is the time where women endure
and experience severe acne as they undergo
hormonal imbalance or disproportion.
During the
pregnancy state the body produces greater quantities of
androgens. This is a kind of hormone known to induce
sebaceous glands and increased in the development of sebum.
The excess sebum is considered as the main cause of
clogged
pores and the combination of shed skin cells around the hair
follicles. This can be the main roots of having multiple
bacteria in the pores leading to an inflamed skin or
eruptions called acne.
This kind of skin eruptions
aggravates the skin condition especially during pregnancy.
This is considered a usual occurrence as the body of a woman
changes during pregnancy. However, there are different
solutions available in the market these days that can help
prevent pregnancy acne. However, you have to be careful of these
treatments since you also carry your child and this might
have an adverse effect on the child in your womb. It would
be best to consult your doctor before undergoing this kind
of procedure and getting into various treatment creams.
It would also be a best
solution if you do away with other chemicals like make-up
and other astringents that would bring havoc both to your
skin and to your baby. Washing your face with mild soap and
water is one of the best ways to treat if not eliminate acne
during pregnancy.
