Why do I get stretch marks on my face during pregnancy?

Many women know that pregnancy is a very difficult thing. The first three months of pregnancy are particularly stressful because it is very easy to cause miscarriage. In addition, they will feel uncomfortable all over due to some morning sickness reactions. Many women will have pregnancy spots on their faces during pregnancy. What should they pay attention to? The editor has some methods that can help with treatment.

After becoming pregnant, a large proportion of women will develop spots on their face, so there is no need to worry too much about it.

During pregnancy, common facial pigmentation is called chloasma. Because it is most prominent on the tip of the nose and both cheeks, and is symmetrically distributed and shaped like a butterfly, it is also called butterfly spots. It is caused by increased secretion of androgen and progesterone by the placenta after pregnancy. Due to individual differences, some pregnant women have heavier spots, some lighter.

After giving birth, the secretion of androgen and progesterone in the body returns to the normal balance of pregnancy. For most people, the spots on their faces will naturally lighten or disappear, but for some people, they remain the same. However, they think that this is a mark of being a mother and they should be proud of it.

1. Even if you have trouble sleeping during pregnancy, do not use sleeping pills to help you sleep, otherwise it will easily cause chloasma on your face. You can relieve insomnia by drinking a glass of milk, a bowl of millet porridge, or doing some exercise that makes you sweat a little.

2. When washing your face, alternate between cold and hot water to promote blood circulation in the face and reduce the chance of pregnancy spots appearing.

3. Eat more vegetables and fruits rich in vitamin C, such as tomatoes and kiwis, to prevent pigmentation and make your skin white.

The several methods introduced by the editor above can effectively remove facial spots, but if you have stretch marks, you don’t need to be too nervous. This is mainly due to hormonal imbalance. This phenomenon will obviously fade after giving birth, so you need to relax. Pregnancy is particularly stressful, and daily care is very important. Do not be affected by external factors and try to keep the pregnant woman's emotions stable.
