Acne is also known as acne vulgaris. The increase in acne during late pregnancy may be caused by abnormal hormone levels, clogged hair follicles, and mental stress.
1. Abnormal hormone levels: The hormone secretion in a woman’s body is strong during pregnancy, and the hormone levels change greatly, which may cause acne to grow or worsen.
2. Clogged hair follicles: During pregnancy, when the diet is oily or the burden on the body is heavier in the late stages of pregnancy, the skin sweating and oiliness may worsen, and if the facial oil is not cleaned up in time, the hair follicles will be clogged, which may lead to the symptoms of acne on the face.
3. Higher mental stress: With the approaching due date, women in late pregnancy are overly worried about whether the delivery process is going smoothly and whether the fetus is healthy, resulting in excessive mental stress and nervousness, which can lead to further development of acne symptoms.
