  If pregnant women experience scalp itching, it is likely due to seborrheic dermatitis. Because pregnant women are not allowed to use shampoo containing medicinal ingredients, it is recommended that they add some rice washing water or add some vinegar to the water when washing their hair, which can relieve scalp itching. Also, at this time, it is important to maintain a light diet and avoid eating overly greasy food.

  It may also be caused by an imbalance in hormone levels in the skin, which can be alleviated through dietary therapy. Eat more foods that promote hormone secretion, but do not use medication indiscriminately to avoid harm to the fetus. If it is caused by not washing your hair for a long time, you should first choose to go to a hair salon for professional hair washing. Avoiding getting cold during the hair washing process can help relieve scalp itching.

  In addition, iron deficiency can also cause scalp itching. So, pregnant women with scalp itching can first pay attention to personal hygiene, wash their hair, and not use medication casually without relief. They can try to check for trace elements to see if there are problems with iron deficiency and other trace elements, and then treat them accordingly.
