Statistics on the state of psoriasis during Pregnancy:

Everything, which can provoke psoriasis in the usual state, also pertains to pregnancy.

Good regimen (reasonable combination of leisure and activities), healthy diet, and avoiding stresses are very important for the normal development of your baby, and also it is very important for you to be comfortable during your pregnancy.

What about those 14% of women, in which psoriasis during pregnancy did aggravate? Main advice: your baby is now more important than psoriasis.

During pregnancy there occur major changes in the body in a sufficiently short time.

Hormonal shifts during pregnancy are inevitable, that's why psoriasis treatment at this time is practically useless.

Lubricate your skin with neutral soft moisturizing creams in order to soften the plaques.

Different cases of psoriasis during pregnancy:

  1. Psoriasis appeared with Morning sickness (Toxidrome; Toxic Syndrome; Toxicosis) and passed together with it. Morning sickness will usually pass rapidly; rarely does it stay for the entire pregnancy.

  2. Psoriasis passed on its own in the 4-5th month of the pregnancy - one morning it miraculously disappeared including the disappearance of the "on-duty plaques".
