Acne during pregnancy
Hi Doctor, I am 5 months pregnant and suffering from acne allover my face. Currently I am only using Acnil Soap as suggested by my gynaecologist and nothing else for the skin.. but still there is not much improvement.. Should I continue using that? Is there safe treatment available for pregnancy acne?

Acne in pregnancy is common phenomenon.. You can continue using the soap.. but if the acne are not responding it is a good idea to consult a dermatologist to get proper treatment to prevent scarring and pigmentation
