Learn the science behind pregnancy glow. Here are the causes and various timings of pregnancy glow often seen in women. Tap to read more about it!
Pregnancy glow refers to the radiant skin, often characterised by rosy cheeks, fuller lips, and brighter skin.
Blood volume increases by about 50% during pregnancy, causing the skin to appear brighter and more radiant.
The surge in estrogen and progesterone levels can cause skin changes, including increased oil production, which contributes to a dewy and brighter complexion.
Some women may notice changes in their skin as early as the first trimester due to hormonal fluctuations.
The pregnancy glow often becomes more apparent during the second trimester, around weeks 13-27, when hormonal levels stabilise and blood flow increases.
The glow may be more pronounced in the third trimester due to peak blood volume.
