Pregnancy Rash

Pregnancy can be a stressful time with lots of changes in the body. The skin isn’t spared this process with stretch marks, dark patches, excess sweating and changes in the hair occurring. Moles may even darken and grow causing great concern for the expectant mother. Skin disease such as psoriasis, eczema and lupus may evolve (occasionally improve) and new rashes and itch may appear.

If your family doctor or your obstetrician has any concerns about your skin in this period, you can make an appointment to see your practitioner at The Skin Centre. Email reception@skincentre.com.au or Ph: (07) 5597 7170.
