What causes acne during pregnancy

Patient's question:

I have an itchy lower body, and my underwear is always yellow. What's going on? What's the reason for acne during pregnancy?

Doctor's answer:

After a pregnant woman becomes pregnant, the secretion of estrogen and progesterone in the placenta and ovaries increases significantly. Under the influence of hormones, people with dry skin may transform into oily skin and are prone to developing acne. In terms of prevention, it is recommended to use facial cleanser to clean thoroughly in the morning. When washing your face at night, first apply a facial cleanser, then use cotton pads to wipe it clean, and finally use a mildly acidic facial cleanser to wash your face. During this process, you should scrub repeatedly to ensure the facial cleanser foams sufficiently, and then rinse with water repeatedly.
