Oh, I had itchy palms during pregnancy and it drove me mad.  It is a hormonal reaction.  My doctor had me use 'coraid' which is an over the counter cream.  It helped a little.  Tell your doctor and see if they recommend a topical treatment for it.  The itching stopped as soon as I gave birth. It was literally so bad that once in a while, I would rub my hands on the bricks of my house to get relief.  So, I feel ya.  I hope the cream helps.  good luck

I had a word with my doctor she says its due to heat in the body which is coming through palms. I used to wash my feet 2 3 times even in mid night with cold water n mostorize them it stops than but it annoys my sleeping.
Thanks anyway I will ask.mu doc about coroid.
