Did your adult/teen acne get worse or better when you got pregnant?

I%26#039;ve always had terrible acne and it%26#039;s just now starting to get better....now hubby and I want to start having children. Of course acne or not, I%26#039;m still going to get pregnant ( :-) ), but I am wondering what others%26#039; experiences are with this. Thanks!|||Never had bad acne. Then I got pregnant. It was embarassing. But I heard that if you have bad acne it could get better when you get pregnant. Don%26#039;t let that stop you from being prego. |||I%26#039;m 17 and didn%26#039;t notice a difference acne wise until I was about 27 weeks pregnant, now I can%26#039;t get it to go away and i%26#039;m 33 weeks pregnant. This sounds stupid, but the thing that works best for me is hand sanitizer, but it dries my face up, so I follow up with lotion on the areas that start getting dry, lol. It%26#039;s not like hardcore acne, it%26#039;s just breakouts, like before you get your period you know? Only it doesn%26#039;t go away for awhile.|||Honestly, I%26#039;ve always been pretty lucky. I never had bad acne (as a teen or an adult)... until I got pregnant! Even before we found out I was pregnant (maybe around 3-4 weeks?) I started breaking out on my back! It has come and gone on my face, but my back has been constantly awful!! I even had to put makeup on my back for my friend%26#039;s wedding (strapless bridesmaid gown)!!! It is just now (24 weeks) STARTING to clear up... yuck! But, don%26#039;t let this discourage you! Everybody is different!!





I%26#039;ve just started using this product:

It%26#039;s a safe acne treatment to use during pregnancy.|||it is deffrent for anyone luck of the draw some women get that pregnant glow and others dont! i always had facial acne but since i got pregnant it is every where my face back chest arms it is horrible. but maybe you will be a person whose pregnancy hormones clear your skin completely up


good luck|||My cystic acne cleared up, but I got a little rosacea during my pregnancy that went away after my daughter was born. My skin was GREAT while I was breastfeeding for a year, but after I stopped, I was back to the cystic acne before my period again.|||I%26#039;ve always had clear sin, but since I%26#039;ve been preg it has not been clear at all. Not full blown acne, but a few blemishes that pop up now and then. Also I have always had soft skin, now it is dry and bumpy. Hopefully it is back to normal once my little girl is here!|||I hate to say this but since your hormones go haywire during pregnancy , there is a good chance your acne could come back. My face broke out. However i used a oatmeal based soap and it helped alot and got my skin under control. Good luck!|||yeah i don%26#039;t know what it is but my face got super clear with both my pregnancies, and for a few months after. but eventually it came back like five months after i had the baby.|||i never had acne to bad as a child but when i got pregnant this time with my son(second, first was a girl) my face broke out bad and still does periodically. so i cant wait to have him|||I got a lot of ache the first couple of months I was pregnant. I got it on my face and shoulders. It is different for all woman though. Your body is going through a lot at this time. Good luck:)|||Mine got worse, right around time for my period. It is still a little bad at 23 weeks, but not so bad you can%26#039;t cover it up.|||iv never had a problem with mine and now that im pregnant i have stayed broke out and i hope when i get farther it goes away|||my acne was terrible during the first months, especially on my chest. which ive never had a problem with when im not pregnant. |||As of right now, mine is terrible. It all depends on your hormones though.
