Pregnant women Can Lead to Skin and Hair Changes

Healthy Tips : Fluctuations in hormone levels and other factors during pregnancy can direct to changes in a woman's skin and hair.

The American Congress of Obstetricians and Gynecologists suggests:
  • Darkened areas on the skin, frequently the face and breasts.
  • Ridges in the stomach and abdomen called stretch marks.
  • Thicker hair, hair growth in novel areas, and possible hair loss behind delivery.
  • Spider veins or varicose veins.
  • Itchy red bumps called pruritic urticarial papules and plaques of pregnancy (PUPPP).
