   Sina parenting: stretch marks are also a headache for everyone. Which pregnant mothers are prone to stretch marks?

   Tong Xiao: At present, the etiology of striae gravidarum is not very clear, and most people think it is related to the change of skin tension and hormone during pregnancy. The occurrence of striae gravidarum is also related to pregnant women's age, genetic factors, family history, skin type, pre pregnancy body mass index, and weight gain during pregnancy.

During pregnancy, the skin will be gradually stretched with the development of subcutaneous tissues such as fat and muscle, resulting in damage to the connective tissue of the dermis, destruction of collagen fibers and elastic fibers, and thus producing striped skin damage. During pregnancy, the levels of various hormones in the body of pregnant women will also change greatly. For example, the surge of glucocorticoid can inhibit the activity and proliferation of fibroblasts, reduce the elastic fibers and collagen synthesized by fibroblasts, and thus hinder the complete repair of the damaged connective tissue in the dermis.

The conditions that are easy to produce stretch marks: the puerpera are young; Family history of striae gravidarum; Skin with special constitution; Pregnant women have high basic weight; Excessive weight gain during pregnancy; High birth weight.

   Sina Child Care: How to prevent and cure the stria gravidarum?

   Tong Xiao: At present, we have no clear treatment plan for the prevention and treatment of pregnancy Chen lines, but we can try some prevention methods in life.

Bitter almond oil: some studies have shown that the application of bitter almond oil from the 19th week of pregnancy and massage can effectively reduce the formation of stretch marks. If not assisted with massage, there is no obvious effect.

Anti stretch mark cream: The effective ingredients for anti stretch mark include hydroxyproline complex, rose hip oil, Centella asiatica and vitamin E. This cream should be used at least twice a day. It is best to apply it on the abdomen, buttocks, chest and thighs after bathing and before sleeping to effectively prevent the formation of stretch marks and reduce their severity.

Moderate exercise: before pregnancy, pay attention to physical exercise and often do massage; After pregnancy, you should also adhere to moderate exercise, such as walking.

Balanced diet: During pregnancy, rich vitamins and minerals should be supplemented. Since collagen fiber itself is composed of protein, you can take more protein rich foods. Avoid eating foods that are too greasy, sweet (prone to obesity), or too salty (prone to edema). Excessive weight gain should be controlled. The weight gain should not exceed 2kg per month. The weight gain during the whole pregnancy should be controlled at 11-14kg.

Use the abdominal belt: it can bear the weight burden of the abdomen and slow down the excessive stretching and pulling of the skin.

In addition, the water temperature should not be too high when taking a shower. You can use slightly cool water to wash the abdomen and gently massage the abdomen skin to enhance the skin elasticity. However, it should be noted that the fetal growth is not stable before 3 months of pregnancy. It is better not to massage or use products to prevent stretch marks to avoid abortion.

In the face of stretch marks, we must pay attention to prevention. It is difficult to improve the appearance of stretch marks after the skin dermis breaks.
