Help my skin!!

Help my skin!!

The past few weeks my face has been breaking out like crazy. I aways had nice skin, my whole life so obviously this is a big shock. I know all the different changes and hormones going on within my body...but how long does this last..??? Is this normal?? And is there anyway to control it or lessen it... I started using proactive about a week and a half ago...but my skin just keeps getting worse and worse... anyone have any tips?

I just recentrly read somewhere that breakouts are most severe in the first trimester. Hopefully, it will get better for you as the pregnancy progresses.

I had that problem too. My skin got better around 8-10 weeks and there really isn't much you can do but be patient because it's hormonal. Maybe ask your OB at your next visit.

My skin was pretty bad in the beginning. I used proactive and it didn't really work for me. Once I got into the 2nd trimester, my skin cleared up and now I haven't had a breakout at all.
