Pregnancy Acne: pls help

[jazhmine012005]

Hayyy mga sis any suggestion?

kasi hindi sa muka yung problem ko ee meron din sa face pero nawawala agad yung pinaka worst is yung nasa likod ko ang dami dami as in kumakalat sya from shouldernhanggang lower back yung iba nawala na pero puro dark spots. i asked my OB about this sabi normal lang daw talaga yun then she gave me a medicine named "Cetaphil" pero parang wala namang effect.
My hubby told me na pabayaan ko na lang since na mawawala din naman after giving birth sa baby boy namin accordingna din sa OB ko, kaso syempre nakaka-insecure kasi yung mga dress ko nakikita yung back ko kaya yun.

^sis, cetaphil is a gentle cleanser that is non-soap. di sya sabon, di din sya gamot. gentle lang na panglinis. most people with sensitive skin use this. kaming magkakapatid, ito din gamit or celeteque for our face.

kasama talaga ng pregnancy yan sis. bacne and chest/breast acne. some are lucky not to have it, some arent. this is due to the surge of hormones. drink lots and lots of water to drown out and balance naman your hormones, it would help a lot. dont use astringents or any strong acne fighting creams, this will go into your bloodstream and can be harmful to baby. some use organic products pero i never did kasi baka lalong mairritate and dumami lang yung breakouts ko. dont pop or scratch your acne, this will lead to discoloration that can last anywhere from weeks to months (mas madali magkadiscoloration at dark spots ang preggies). eat lots of healthy things- vegetables.fiber.fruits. and iwas sa mga fatty foods. iwas sa mga bagay that used to give you breakouts. iwas din sa stress. take your vitamins.

and yun nga, wag mong pansinin. it will go away. waiting game lang sya. you have to wait it out. like underarm darkening, linea negra, bloating, allergies, madaming mga bagay that can happen during pregnancy, and are natural naman. you have to wait them out lang.

Thanks for the reply sis.

After a bottle of cetaphil na binigay sakin ng OB ko di na ako bumili kasi parang di naman nageeffect sakin. I never used any medicine/cream para sa back acnes ko hinihintay ko na lang mawawala natatakot din kasi ako kasi may mga side effects yun kay baby for sure, kaya yun.
Nawawala naman yung back acnes ko pero may dark spots na kahit hindi ko pina-pop or ini-scratch.

Sa ngayon di ko na lang talaga sya pinapansin, yung older sister ko na lang ang pumapansin para sakin kasi daw nung sya yung preggy di sya nagkaron nang ganun hehe

i'm having this too. but hindi ko na lang talaga ginagalaw. takot din kasi ako maglagay ng gamot even if sabe nila safe. sabe naman din ni ob, kusa din mawawala yun.

same here ganito na rin ako sa panganay ko dati pero mas matindi lang ngayon hahaha as in pati arms ko na and meron na rin paunti-unti sa tummy ko. tapos ang itim itim pa ang pangit pangit talaga.

OK lang tyagaan lang talaga, pwede naman paderma after manganak, but ako pills lang, since kaylangan ko din naman magpills after giving birth kasi CS ako. Sa panganay ko at first ang ginamit ko diane nagclear tlaga ang pimples ko within 1-2mons ata, hindi ko na lang napansin na unti-unti nawala sya and sinamhan ko din kasi that time ng derma kumuha ako ng package sa bioessence.

Now, hopefully mag ok ulit pag nagpills ulit ako, but this time yasmine na. nagstop kasi ako using diane after mga 5mons lang ata sobrang maiinitin ang ulo ko sa diane
