Is there any safe acne treatment during pregnancy? Before we get the best treatment for pregnant women let us know the root behind acne formation. Acne is mostly caused by hormonal imbalance during pregnancy. The body produces androgens which are the main source of sebum and sebum produces more oils that blocks the skin pores which finally causes acne.

Treatments to avoid during pregnancy

- Avoid using tretinoin, it is used to treat acne and it is very effective. It is one of the most familiar retinoids used. Because this treatment is a Vitamin A derivative, it will not be prescribed to a pregnant woman. It is very effective so pregnant women should avoid it. Try to stay way from any other retinoids.

- Stay away from any antibiotics especially tetracycline. They cause weak the bone and some slight defects in babies.

- Try and avoid any derivative of vitamin A. especially when you are suffering from severe or moderate acne cases. The one that is common is isotretinoin, it is banned and forbidden to be given to a pregnant woman.

Treatments to use during pregnancy

The first thing you must do is to go and see your doctor or dermatologist for the recommended drugs or treatment for pregnant women. So I will advice you see your doctor first before using any self medication or treatment.

The treatment that a dermatologist can prescribe to a person that is pregnant is the usage of natural methods, home remedies or topical treatments. The treatment you can try to use is benzoyl peroxide or salicylic acid. But if you can wait the acne will clear off after pregnancy.

You can also try to apply these short tips

- Drink at least ten to fifteen glasses of water daily.

- Wash your face at least three times daily.

- Use a dry towel to clean your face after washing.

- Do not pinch or touch your pimples, it might lead to severe scarring.

- You can apply tea tree oil.

- Relax and do it repeatedly.

- Avoid stress

These are the safe acne treatment during pregnancy that you must use. Do not forget to go and see your doctor for the best remedy for your skin.
