Pregnancy usually brings along with it a host of medical
concerns which prompt behavioral and lifestyle changes. It is
common knowledge that pregnant women should avoid smoking and
drinking, not to mention some excessively physical activities.
But there are also a host of other medicines and procedures
which should be avoided during pregnancy. So, the question is,
how does pregnancy affect acne skin care regimens?
Many acne medicines are quite explicit about the fact that you
should not use them during pregnancy. Roaccutane and

are certainly among these. For those of us that have used the
products, the medicine packaging picturing a pregnant woman with
an 'X' over her sent a strong message that they should not be
used if you are, or might become pregnant. There are other
medicines, such as Tetracycline tablets and topical retinoids
such as Tretinoin and Adapalene which can have detrimental
effects on the bones and teeth of developing fetuses. While
these medicines should clearly be avoided because of the
detrimental effects they have on your baby, there are
other
medicines which should potentially be stopped simply because
they are no longer appropriate when pregnant.
Pregnancy is often associated with a period of drier than normal
skin. As a result, a number of acne medicines which are designed
specifically to dry out the skin, namely benzoyl peroxide cream
or gel may no longer be appropriate.
But does this mean that there are no acne skin care regimens
that can be followed? Absolutely not. There are in fact a number
of milder and often natural solutions which can contribute
to
healthier acne free skin which either have no, or even positive
effects on your child. To replace harsh creams or gels designed
to dry out the skin, an excellent alternative is tea tree oil. A
milder facial wash can also provide the cleansing effect of an
acne wash without over-drying your skin, which is naturally
drier due to pregnancy. But because you may be giving up some of
the acne fighting power by switching over to a milder wash, it
is a good idea to supplement your acne fighting regimen with
some natural clay masks such as Kaolin and
Bentonite which will
absorb oil and clear blocked pores naturally.
The second avenue through which pregnant women can clear up
their skin while positively affecting the health of the child,
is through their diet. By consuming higher quantities of raw
vegetables, whose antioxidant properties serve to take free
radicals (also referred to as bacteria) out of your system, you
can cut down on the amount of bacteria released through your
pores. In addition, by cutting back on the quantity of sugars
and refined carbohydrates that you eat, you
Actimine provides the nutrients needed by your body to regulate the occurrence of acne, eliminating the potential scarring and embarrassment which often result from chronic breakouts.

will naturally cut
down on the amount of sebum or oil that your body produces. This
will keep your pores clearer and allow the bacteria which passes
through your pores to come out cleanly and without causing
infection and acne. These approaches, in addition to providing
you with clearer skin, are a safe and healthy alternative to
acne fighting while simultaneously improving the health of your
child.
