acne problems?

Question

I'm on my third pergnancy and I have really bad acne, but I didn't have this much acne with my first 2 pregnancies. What can I use to get my skin looking fresh again?

Answer 1

Acne is caused by a bacteria that lives on our skin. It affects some people more so than others. During pregnancy, the natural oils and pH balance of our skin change due to hormonal changes, which sometimes allows that bacteria to run rampant and hence, acne. Your best bet, is to make sure you eat a healthy diet (oils don't matter, neither does chocolate, but eating healthy is good for you anyway), wash your face regularly with a mild soap (I use Clean and Clear's acne wash, it seems to help keep oils at bay without overdrying my skin, but you might have to go through a few before you find one that works), and try a loofah scrub made for your face. Loofah is not the poofy things we use for shower gel, loofah is made from either actual sea sponge, or gourds. I use a flat one made for faces and it helps to scrub off the dead skin and excess dirt and oils that just washing leaves behind. That should help immensely. Good luck!! =)

If you’re looking for accurate acne information, best to see a dermatologist. Some people believe doctors are predisposed to take the easy way to deal with acne… prescription drugs. But, with many, this simplistic answer may not be the appropriate course of action. Some feel that such prescription drugs just treat the symposium and not the underlying cause. But, a local dermatologist is still your best starting point.
For me personally, I discovered a great informational acne treatment site. Not only is there good information/articles but I got their audio e-book and following it’s advice can now say that my acne is a thing of the past! Keep in mind, were all different and there are various types of acne, so what works for some may not be totally effective for all.

Bottom line, hang in there, you will get past this! Sincere best wishes and good luck.

Answer 4

Don't use any acne medicine without checking with your doctor. When I was a teen and I was having breakouts I would let the hot water from the shower run over my face and it opened up the pores and I never really had much of a problem. The hot water disolves oils on the skin.
