What Causes Skin Sensitivity During Pregnancy?
Skin sensitivity during pregnancy is primarily caused by hormonal fluctuations and other physiological changes. Here's an overview of the key factors:
The surge in hormones such as progesterone and estrogen during pregnancy can lead to heightened skin sensitivity. These hormones can alter the skin’s barrier function, making it more prone to irritation and reactions.
As blood circulation increases during pregnancy, the skin may become more reactive to external stimuli, resulting in sensitivity, redness, or inflammation.
Pregnancy can cause an imbalance in skin hydration, leading to dryness and increased sensitivity. Dry skin is more susceptible to irritation and can exacerbate conditions like itching or redness.
Pregnancy triggers changes in the immune system, which may make the skin more prone to allergic reactions, rashes, or other inflammatory conditions, increasing overall sensitivity.
Why Do Ingredients Matter During Pregnancy?
During pregnancy, hormonal changes make the skin more sensitive, which may increase absorption rates and exacerbate reactions. Certain ingredients are linked to birth defects, hormonal disruption, and developmental issues, so it’s crucial to switch to pregnancy-safe skincare products.
