The change in the colour of your palms is known as palmar erythema .
Pregnancy is a very common cause of primary palmar erythema. A pregnant woman’s body goes through hormonal changes during pregnancy, causing estrogen levels to rise.
Higher estrogen levels may increase the likelihood of developing palmar erythema. This rise in estrogen is temporary, so redness in the palms will likely disappear after the pregnancy.
In non pregnant women/men ,this is due to liver disease and it has to be dealt with ,at the earliest .
