Does pregnancy sometimes spur adult acne?

Yes! For me, I battle with it more when I am not pregnant, then it clears up when I am. The surgence of hormones changes the way your skin feels, not just on your face.





I use Murad products to keep my acne in check. There are several facial products out there that you shouldnt use when pregnant, because it gets into your bloodstream through your pours, so be sure to check with your doctor if you are using harsh acne products.|||Oh you bet. I have acne throughout my pregnancies. But thankfully clear skin returns after my babies come.|||I am living proof that it does. I never had anything other than an occassional pimple as a teenager, and at 28 when I had my first child I started having acne---and now 7 year later am still dealing with it. The pill has helped it, but hasn%26#039;t solved the problem completely.|||Yes, but sometimes it might clear skin up too. Those hormones can do ANYTHING!|||oh my goodness, yes! and it%26#039;s awful. I used to have clear pretty skin until I got pregnant with my daughter. Now I fight with it every day. My ob told me I could use proactive once or twice a week and it would be safe, but it seems like if you dont use it daily, then it really dosnt work. This is my first baby, but ive heard that after the pregnancy is over that your skin will clear up. So hopefuly this is true!!! It%26#039;s one of the worse things in pregnancy. At least for me it has been. Good luck to you!|||oh yeah....its because of hormones!|||yes it does
