I don't know if this is pregnancy related or not but I have recently got itching in my pubic area and its dry, flaky skin and red. And it's just in the upper pubic area. Not anywhere else. Anybody know if this is normal and what can help it?

I have heard of itching during pregnancy, but usually it's the tummy since it's stretching. You could try an excema lotion, or change to a non perfumed soap.

I was itchy everywhere for the first 5 months, Zinc oxide cleared things up. So does ensuring to not over do the tight clothing. Naked is best.

How far along are you? If your skin is stretching what you described is exactly how it may look and feel. So yes its pregnancy related and very normal...lotion should help.

pregnancy can really dry your skin out... that's probably all it is... and especially if you wear low undies and pants.... they can bind in that area more now... use lots of cocoa butter and you should start feeling the relief soon.... also if you can stand it switch to undies and pants that go over the belly instead of under.

You can get a rash from pregnancy. My sister got it all over the chest, neck and arms. You need to see your doctor.

I dont think its pregnancy. You might be allergic to something, maybe a detergent or soap your using, or panty liners...
Rinse yourself with just plain cold water. If it gets worse, see a gyno.
