Why do nipples itch during pregnancy1

  Firstly, after pregnancy, the hormone levels in women's bodies may become abnormal, and it is common for them to experience breast swelling, pain, and itching. Women should not worry too much, as this is a normal pregnancy reaction after pregnancy. When the nipple itches, women can gently wipe the nipple with a warm towel to relieve discomfort.

  At the same time, women can also clean their nipples with water at a suitable temperature before wiping them. After cleaning, wipe the nipple area dry and apply some mild and non irritating skincare products on the nipple to relieve itching. Women should pay attention to choosing suitable skincare products.

  Finally, after pregnancy, women should no longer wear tight fitting underwear. At this time, they can choose loose and comfortable maternity underwear, which can improve breast discomfort. At the same time, women should pay attention not to scratch hard when their nipples itch.
