What should I do if my hands and feet start itching in the second trimester of pregnancy?

Patient's question:

I am very scared when this happens. I often have lower abdominal pain and don't know how to solve it, so I came here to consult. Please tell me what to do if itchy hands and feet start in the second trimester of pregnancy.

Doctor's answer:

In your case, it may be an allergic reaction, which is an excessive or pathological response to certain substances, situations, or physical conditions. It is recommended to use loratadine for treatment, and desensitization therapy can be considered if necessary. Based on your description, it is advisable to have a transvaginal ultrasound examination at the hospital around the 60th day of pregnancy. Avoid spicy and irritating foods as well as strenuous exercise to prevent miscarriage.
