Popis: Certain skin conditions may improve in pregnancy while others get worse. It can be unpredictable and can vary from person to person and from pregnancy to pregnancy as to how pregnancy can affect an underlying chronic skin condition such as atopic eczema, psoriasis or acne. Pregnant women can occasionally develop skin problems that are unique to the pregnancy state (atopic eruption of pregnancy, polymorphic eruption of pregnancy, intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy and pemphigoid gestationis). Treatment of skin problems in pregnancy can be difficult as great care needs to be taken not harm the unborn child.
