Very embarrassing question, I feel a little weird sticky underneath during pregnancy, and I was shocked when I looked at it in the mirror, how did it become so dark! Later, I found out that many pregnant mothers on the forum are like this! It's an embarrassing question, but what's going on?
The secretion of estrogen and progesterone increases during pregnancy, and there are black body cells that can produce melanin under the pregnant mother**, and the number of their activation will be greatly increased. In fact, in addition to that, the nipples, areolas, armpits, abdomen and other parts of the body will be pigmented and blackened, and some will look as if they have not been washed, and they will be black.
However, you can rest assured that this is a normal pregnancy skin change, and most pregnant mothers will slowly recover after giving birth. As long as the amount of hormone secretion returns to normal, the melanin precipitation will gradually improve. Normally, 3-6 months after delivery, the body will gradually return to normal, and the dark spots on the body will slowly fade or even completely fade. However, since each person's constitution is different, the recovery situation will be different.
During pregnancy, in addition to the above-mentioned skin color changes, there is also a big problem: ** will always feel "unclean", wet and sticky with a lot of discharge. After pregnancy, due to higher estrogen, the epithelial cells will continue to renew and thicken, and the secretion will increase. Those milky white secretions are not "unclean", they contain a lot of lactobacilli in addition to shedding cells, but are a sign of a healthy reproductive system.
Lactobacillus is a natural protective barrier for women, maintaining a weakly acidic environment that can prevent the growth of germs. If the expectant mother uses alkaline lotion or often overwashes**, it will destroy the **barrier, cause a disorder of the microflora, and lead to **inflammation.
It is enough for expectant mothers to wash with water, not soap and other detergents. If you are really afraid that it will not be clean, you can choose a regular weak acid lotion to clean**, 1-2 times a day. Do not wash the inside of the ** by yourself to avoid the invasion of germs.
Shower is the first choice for cleaning, and be sure to wash your hands before washing. Then wash from front to back**, and then wash the size**, pay attention to wash the small **inner gaps to avoid dirt and dirt. Then wash the **behind**, finally wash the **around and**, and wash your hands again after washing.
If you use a basin, you should use a special basin and towel to avoid contamination with other bacteria, especially the footbasin, and the socks must be separated. Before washing, the special basin should be washed clean, and the towel should be dried after washing, and the sun is the best, and the towel is often moist and easy to breed bacteria. After pooping, wipe it clean from front to back and wash it with warm water**.
*Choose a loose and comfortable cotton material, change it every day, wash it immediately, and hang it in a ventilated place or to dry in the sun. After washing, you can wear it without hurry, put on a loose gown or skirt first, and wait for it to dry before passing it, which is more conducive to cleaning and preventing odor.
It is also important to change bed sheets and toilet mats regularly, wash them in a timely manner, dry them in a timely manner, and do not wear tight and breathable pants and use non-breathable pads
