Pregnancy Acne?
Posted: 10-20-03 13:54pm

I am getting married in 2 weeks and am 6 weeks pregnant. My skin is going crazy and I am breaking out allover my face, back and neck. What can I do to clear this up if not completely, atleast a little before the wedding. I am allergic to most prescription acne medications so those wont help. Thank you!

Ask your doctor specially if your allergic to most stuff. Have you had acne problems when you were in your early teenage years??? Well if you did, what did you do??? I know I kept my face clean by washing it and using astringent afterward. When my face gets dry, I use the clean n clear moisturizing lotion. If there's not enough time, you can always just cover it up. Your husband will understand. It's normal to have acne when your pregnant due to your hormons so don't worry about it.

Confused I am feeling the same way, I am 18 weeks pregnant and my doctor just told me that is was very common in your pregnancy and that I would go away soon. I have been waiting on it to go away for some weeks now. I can see that it is clearing up though. (just a little) I would just use some good makeup.

Congrats on the wedding. :d
