Skin and Complexion Changes I am developing blue lines under my skin, especially on the breasts and abdomen This is part and parcel of pregnancy.
These blue lines are a network of veins that have expanded to carry the
increased blood supply through your body. For some women, these lines become
more noticeable later in pregnancy.
Are the purplish red lines on my thighs varicose veins No. Hormonal changes during pregnancy
result in telangiectases or spider nevi. They usually fade after delivery.
What's happening to my complexion Is it a breakout or a glow? Either
ways, it is caused by an increased secretion of oils brought about by hormonal
changes.
How do I take care of my skin Remember, a good diet not only provides nutrition for your baby, but will also help your skin. Drink the most efficient pore purifier : water. Avoid make-up and creams and wash your face 2 or 3 times a day with water and a gentle cleanser. If your skin feels dry and itchy, use a moisturizer. Ask your doctor to prescribe a vitamin B supplement. To add your views on this article or read others comments Click Here
