Why do pores become larger during pregnancy?

When a woman is pregnant, her body functions change, her blood flows faster, and her body temperature rises. Feeling sleepy and tired are normal. The enlargement of pores is also a normal reaction. This is because the body secretes too much estrogen during pregnancy, which increases progesterone and oxytocin, making the pores larger and even causing body hair to fall off. This is all normal and there is no need to worry too much. It will disappear on its own after production.

1. During pregnancy, women 's hormones (especially male hormones and female hormones) undergo a roller coaster-like change. Estrogen increases dozens of times, and male hormones also increase several times. At the same time, progesterone and oxytocin also increase.

2. Some women may temporarily allow male hormones to prevail during this "hormone storm" . Since women's skin hair follicles are abnormally sensitive to male hormones, subtle hormonal changes may cause unnecessary body hair in certain parts of the body.

After the baby is born, hormones return to normal levels. Some women's body hair will fall off on its own, while others will not and can be shaved off with a razor.

3. Some women lose body hair after becoming pregnant. This is normal. It is also because during the "hormone storm" process, estrogen (not testosterone) may temporarily dominate. After the baby is born, hormones return to normal levels and body hair will grow back.

4. If the male hormone level is too high or the female hormone level is too low due to pathological reasons , body hair will also be produced. This situation is very detrimental to the development of the fetus and may cause miscarriage or fetal malformation. If you find anything wrong or have any suspicion, you need to go to a regular hospital for hormone testing and monitoring. Pregnant mothers should go to bed as early as possible. They can try drinking milk, playing music, soaking their feet, etc. before bed to help themselves fall asleep, and try to fall asleep before 11 o'clock. Only in this way can the skin be better repaired and the problem of enlarged pores be alleviated.

5. Faced with increasingly enlarged pores , pregnant mothers must not be anxious. You must know that shrinking pores is not a matter of one or two days. Only by turning grief and anger into strength, and persevering in "training" the naughty large pores during pregnancy, will they shrink and allow the skin to return to a good condition!

6. Generally, pregnant women are more nervous and anxious after pregnancy , and this situation will usually recover after giving birth.
