What should I do if I have itchy allergies during pregnancy?

Once women become pregnant, their bodies will become very weak due to changes in hormones, especially their immune functions will be easily unbalanced. In this case, it is easy to get symptoms such as infection and allergies. There are many reasons that cause allergies in pregnant women, such as food allergies, pet hair allergies, pollen allergies, etc. These will cause itching symptoms on the skin. At this time, the following methods can be taken to help solve the problem.

What should I do if I have itchy allergies during pregnancy?

1. The large amount of hormone secretion during pregnancy can easily lead to an allergic constitution. At the same time, the appearance of stretch marks, vigorous metabolism and increased secretions often lead to skin itching, and are prone to eczema, urticaria, dermatitis, etc. If there is a history of allergies, immune imbalance is more likely to occur. Skin itching makes expectant mothers unable to sleep well at night, which indirectly affects the development of the fetus. If the skin becomes itchy and scratched, it may become infected and endanger the fetus.

2. Allergies can easily be passed on to babies. Children with allergies are weak and sickly from an early age. Allergic attacks affect their lives, and if not relieved in time, they may even be life-threatening. Expectant mothers should take good care of themselves from the preparation period for pregnancy, which is very good for preventing allergies in their children in the future. Substances that ordinary people are not allergic to can trigger allergic reactions in people with allergic constitutions, leading to allergic rhinitis, pharyngitis, and even allergic asthma, dermatitis, and eczema.

3. Only by improving the allergic constitution can you avoid allergic reactions when exposed to allergens. The use of antihistamines can easily lead to dependence, and allergic reactions will recur without any need for it. At the same time, you will feel sleepy. Antihistamines do not cut off the source of histamine production, so they are not helpful in improving desensitization. Hormones are quick to take effect, but they are also highly addictive. They also affect children's growth and development, cause osteoporosis, and are toxic to the liver and kidneys, so they are not suitable for long-term use. Neither of these is suitable for use by pregnant women.

What should pregnant women do if they have allergic itching all over their body? After seeing the above methods, did you learn a lot? Pregnancy management for pregnant women is a very important issue, and it plays a very important role in the entire life and future of the baby and mother. Therefore, pregnant women must be managed carefully, and it is not enough to just rely on medication. The combination of Chinese and Western medicine, as well as daily attention, are very important.
