It has been estimated that almost 50% of adult women experience acne flare ups during premenstrual period and pregnancy and there is nothing abnormal about it. During pregnancy the serum level of male hormones, androgens, goes on top giving rise to a sudden hormonal imbalance in female body. This erratic upsurge of male hormones influences the oil glands underneath epidermal skin layer to secrete huge amount of body oil or sebum. Surplus sebum, instead of reaching the skin surface, clogs up the hair follicles intermingling with follicular lining dead cells and acne causing Propionibacterium acnes bacteria. This eventually leads to several types of acne lesions and inflammation not only on your face but also on several parts of your body.
Some lucky women do not face this situation during their pregnancy. But, those who deal with such traumatic situation of acne in pregnancy often face the worst period during their first trimester. Nevertheless, over a few months of your conception your female hormonal level gradually increases easing up the whole acne condition and even disappearing completely.
Although some people might find it trivial to be worried about; but one should not forget that she is pregnant now and as this bothersome skin disorder could devastate her self esteem turning her into a patient of depression, it might directly affect the unborn baby in several ways. And it is for sure that one expected mother won’t welcome any such situation which might harm her baby.
Just by maintaining a few simple rules in your everyday life and following some treatment procedures as per the direction of your doctor you could get rid of this skin disease completely. Do not over cleanse your skin or rub with a harsh scrubber in an attempt to wipe off your acne pimples as early as possible, which otherwise could backfire your overall endeavor, adding more acne lesions to your face. Over cleansing would strip away the surplus oil from your skin which would lead to more irritation and breakouts. A few medicines which you might be able to use for acne in pregnancy without putting your fetus in risk for major malformations are benzoyl peroxide, azelaic acid, and erythromycin. However, a professional medical practitioner should be able to guide you in every respect of your effort to fight back acne and make it a successful endeavor.
