During pregnancy and breastfeeding, the skin can become more sensitive and vulnerable to changes in weather conditions. Hormonal fluctuations may also make the skin more prone to dryness or even acne.

Focus primarily on keeping your skin well-hydrated and, when needed, choose gentle, lightly scented products that help balance the skin. Look for natural, antioxidant-rich oils that support skin renewal.

During hormonal changes, the skin may become more sensitive than usual. Stretch marks can also develop, particularly on the body as the skin stretches during pregnancy. Keeping the skin well-moisturized is important for maintaining its softness and elasticity, although moisturizing cannot completely prevent stretch marks.

Hormonal changes during pregnancy and breastfeeding can also make the skin more prone to pigmentation changes, such as freckles and melasma, especially with UV exposure. Remember to protect your skin with sunscreen throughout pregnancy, particularly during the summer months.
