I am getting itchy acne on my back I'm having a boy and my doctor said its a sign of my body reacting to baby boy's testosterone hormone and there's nothing I can do about it I've tried oatmeal baths different lotions nothing helps wearing clothes and bras makes the itch unbearable :(

I've gotten a little acne on my forehead.. nothing on my belly though.

I would definitely just ask my OB about it.. we're all super hormonal right now, and our skin is going to change. I've noticed my skin has been a little more dry, so it's easy for me to remember to put lotion on every day.. maybe you just need a certain lotion for relief? I'm sure it's just pregnancy related.. everyone is different. keep us updated & good luck!! (((:
