Patient's question:
I'm almost six months pregnant, and recently I've found that every part of my body is itchy. Why is this? It's mainly itchy at night.Doctor's answer:
Hello, after pregnancy, due to the increased secretion of estrogen, the breasts may also enlarge. Breast enlargement may cause the epidermal skin muscle fibers to break, resulting in the appearance of what are known as stretch marks. This is perfectly normal.
