Cosmetics or medications used during this stage can affect the fetus. Some natural ingredients such as honey can be used. Honey not only contains beneficial vitamins for health but also treats acne very well.

Stretch marks
Regularly use gentle moisturizers, natural products such as coconut oil, olive oil… and gently massage daily on the affected areas of the skin.
In addition, the diet should be supplemented with foods rich in vitamin E, vitamin A, omega 3, omega 6… If you need to supplement with functional foods or drugs, you need the advice of a specialist doctor.
Dark spots
