Skincare in pregnancy – Have you ever stopped to think how the largest organ in the human body, the skin, reacts to pregnancy changes? Like the other parts of the body, the woman’s skin feels all the physical and hormonal changes during and after pregnancy, so it is common to notice changes that range from skin pigmentation to the aspect of the nail.
Pregnancy dermatoses can be classified into three groups: physiological skin changes, pre-existing problems that worsen with pregnancy and skin problems inherent to pregnancy. This means that, besides the common alterations, women with genetic predisposition or some specific problem can present manifestations in the dermis.
