How to relieve the itching of stretch marks on a pregnant woman's abdomen

Patient's question:

No

Doctor's answer:

The strategies for preventing and eliminating stretch marks are:
1. Help to replenish collagen that is lacking in nutrition, restoring the original elasticity of the skin.
2. Stimulate active cells to rebuild elastic fibers.
3. Moisturize and nourish dry skin, avoiding irritation.
Since stretch marks are unlikely to be completely eliminated after they appear, prevention before pregnancy can be twice as effective with half the effort. During pregnancy, a balanced diet should be maintained to ensure normal weight gain. Nutritional intake should only meet the needs of the baby, as excessive nutrition may lead to rapid growth, causing the abdominal elastic fibers to break and resulting in stretch marks.
Controlling weight within the following range during pregnancy can effectively prevent and reduce stretch marks.
