Feedback

Without going into a complex explanation, pregnancy causes significant increases in serum (blood) hormone and androgen levels.  These changes can manifest in the skin in the form of acne (or elevated degrees of acne), pigment (such as pregnancy mask or melasma) and various forms of inflammation.  

Each of these conditions has relationships to the mineral content of the skin and while pregnant or nursing it is important to discuss balanced nutrition and the use of dietary supplements with your physician.  This discussion should include minerals and essential fatty acids within the diet.

Planning Ahead 
For people with moderate to severe acne it is wise to get acne under control prior to pregnancy.  A standard acne or acne rosacea "Special Value Package" will usually achieve acne control in eight to twelve weeks.  Maintaining or controlling acne during the pregnancy and nursing will then be much easier.  

The first three months of pregnancy usually have a greater stimulatory effect upon acne than the following six months and this information can help you coup with a sudden increase.  There can be another increase in acne one to two months following birth, as hormones change again to a more normal level. 

All of the acne products featured in this website are safe for use during pregnancy and nursing.
